Some thoughts, without advocating for either option:

Hi,
I've recently added support for page-level encryption to LMDB 1.x
using user-supplied callbacks
That does sound cool. :)
One question is whether we should actually make this pluggable like
this, or
we should just hardcode support for a specific algorithm and leave i

Ciao, Michael.

I've recently added support for page-level encryption to LMDB 1.x using
user-supplied callbacks:
