So, using a “secret” key transmitted via http (like the generator mentioned above) does not really help.

For paranoid ppl or ppl that know theyre going to be attacked I would recommend using somethng like hotbits (http://www.fourmilab.ch/hotbits/) where the truly and genuine random password (produced from radioactive decay) is transmitted via secure server to create the key
