I think forward and backward secrecy are unachievable in Nostr. You can either be able to load your DMs in many clients and not have any type of real forward and backward secrecy OR you can have DMs that are only visible in the originating client, and thus "broken UXs" everywhere else and then yes with forward and backward secrecy.
There is no way to do both.
