The problem is, you need to send so many mails in the clear, you end up with a default of not encrypting any. I do think this option would be useful. I agree that selecting such middle-ground in the menu when composing a mail makes little sense (it may fit with other autocrypt-related changes, though) but IMHO makes perfect sense for an account default.

Half-encrypting the mail seems more confusing than "Sorry, it couldn't be sent encrypted while also sending it to John" > especially if you agreed with the other recipients to always encrypt messages. I think that should be a setting for the Contact (like "wants HTML"), that (independently to this proposed setting) could trigger an alert if sending in plain to a contact marked as "always send encrypted" (not sure if it should also change automatically a plaintext default if sending to contacts with that tag and for which we have a key).
