Hello Måns I have plans to improve the encrypt tiddler widget, but the last time someone asked me something about it (in this group) I asked his opinion about some new features and no answered me.
1)The first thing in my To-do list is to make the widget accept a filter list instead of just a target tiddler. This will allow you to decrypt all the tiddlers with a certain tag or from a certain user. Maybe this can be achieved at this moment with a combination of encryptTiddler and list widgets. Feel free to experiment. The main question here is where to allow the batch decrypt. On every tiddler? On a main decrypt tab? It's not an easy decision. The other feature I'm planning is to give the option to don't decrypt the tiddler but to make a temporary copy decrypted. All those tiddlers would be deleted on wiki save or close. This tiddlers should be displayed through a special template that indicates they are just a decrypted copy of other tiddler. I also want to create a tab into the control panel to manage all this stuff. About the master password... I think it will not be possible because the encrypt mechanism. It's not the same that allow or doesn't allow the access to a certain content. In the first scenario you have a door that can be opened with one or many keys, but the content after that door is unaltered. The encrypted data is a unique string created with the password, so the content has been modified to be a mess. It can only be reconstructed with the correct password. I'm not an specialist with I'm pretty sure it works this way.
