It's a project I did in 9 days, it's not perfect or done. ;)
Practical safety? It's a single page not a bank account. It's odd you would jump to that conclusion without know the dictionary. You don't think 5^1000 is secure enough for a single page?
If you edit your pages, use a blog. This service isn't for the person that wants mutable pages. Different strokes my friend
For anyone considering creating private keys, 2^50 is borderline ok, but nowhere near safe to give someone true ownership of something, and I'm not just saying for some theoretical argument.
2^256 is considered extremely safe (altho arguably not quantum resistant depending on the hashing algo)
See Bitcoin bips for an (optionally i18n) list of 2048 words that is fairly standard and several libs can help with implementation. Pick at least 10 words - don't worry, users won't remember either number of words for life, they have to back up somewhere safe anyway.

> secret phrase in a safe location
Smart stuff with the secret phrase, but i'm afraid the security in the number of words there is just not sufficient for any practical safety.
> Very rarely do you need to update a page once it's been posted so we punted on that feature for now
LOL seriously?? Maybe you're a more sure shot than I am but i even update my gists more often than not
