It looks like that plugin *disables* swap files and undo files, instead of 
encrypting them, like the built-in encryption. What if I want to keep the 
benefits of an undo file or swap file? That's probably the biggest benefit of 
having it in the core.

Also, if it's in core, I don't need to compile an external tool for use on 
systems where I don't have admin. Or find a tool for use on Windows.

Of course, I don't actually use Vim's encryption for much of anything 
myself...I use a real password manager for encrypting passwords, and don't have 
much reason to encrypt other textual things. So I say "I" very loosely in the 
above.
