This would be a killer feature for backends.
In the meantime, we might create a proxy service that receives housekeep commands
Investigate how to protect from cryptos... Does housekeep server have a "bare minimum to keep" policy ?

So zero knowledge is hard to achieve since we got restic symmetric encryption.
Best we can do is using a separate "orchestrator client", that will exist in v3.0.
Once this exists, we might reconsider proxying commands to the orchestrator client, so the client has real zero knowledge.

Btw, running a proxy server having "all" secrets would allow client to have real zero knowledge.
