Hi Petr,

I'll look into whether it's doable to automatically generate keys. I 
suspect that including the scripts to generate the key

is the best way forward with this, as well as noting in the README how 
to generate your own key and use that instead.

Expect a further patch in the next few days.


Thank you reviewing this further!

Lachlan
