Help all messages get to all people...

Is this the "fire and forget mode, where the user can enter a message, put the phone in their pocket, and walk around and area and have it broadcast to all devices it encounters"?

That is already implemented by setting the device bluetooth name. As long as it is set, and visibility is on, then it does that. This is more of the repeater model, or the ability to send an encrypted message meant for someone, through a series of other devices.

Could this potentially involve minilock-style encryption for private messages?

yes, integrating minilock or some other very efficient ECC crypto system is necessary, especially if we want others to be able to relay and replicate messages.
