That would make sense into the Sender request, once we don’t have ways to identify if the data was encrypted or not, something like "--header “protected: true” (always optional). For example:


curl -3 -u "{PushApplicationID}:{MasterSecret}"
   -v -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-type: application/json”
   --header “protected: true"
   -X POST

   -d '{
      "variants" : ["c3f0a94f-48de-4b77-a08e-68114460857e", "444939cd-ae63-4ce1-96a4-de74b77e3737" ....],
      "categories" : ["someCategory"],
      "alias" : ["user at account.com", "jay at redhat.org", ....],
      "deviceType" : ["iPad", "AndroidTablet", "web"],

      "message": {"key":"value", "key2":"other value", "alert":"HELLO!"},
      "simple-push": "version=123"
   }'

Does it make sense to you? In the future with the key agreement, that might not be necessary.
