I would rather we spend time working to make users' bitcoins safe EVEN IF
their bitcoin software is compromised.

Eliminate the "if you get a bad bitcoin-qt.exe somehow you're in big
trouble" risk entirely, instead of worrying about unlikely scenarios like a
timing attack in between ACKs/pulls. Eliminate one piece of software as the
possible single point of failure...
