I know that this may not apply to your situation, but it seems like 
running the Tahoe node in a VM of some sort is a good idea.  That would 
put the Tahoe server into it's own security-container -- so, in the 
unlikely event that some catastrophic security bug were found in the 
node-daemon, the rest of your stuff would be protected.
