Hello Phillip,

Since there is a new release brewing I wanted to check if anything ever
materialized from this thread as it is of extreme interest to me. To
summarize:
An idea popped up that ignoring or encryption of entries can happen
based on the world readable permissions for every individual file.
Ideally having encrypt-on-non-world-readable as default would be an
invaluable catch-all for any sensitive data one might have around the
system.

Thank you for the wonderful tool!

Peter
