We don't do encrypted docs yet, but it probably wouldn't be too hard to do.

Not exactly, but there is something close to that, on both import and 
export. For export, everything ultimately passes through some variation of 
IE_Exp::write() except for some special binary formats (word, psion). So 
encrypted ABW wouldn't be hard to do.

For import, it'd involve a lot more work - you might just want to try 
encrypting the text or something - that'd be easy. Either that, or hook up 
encryption to the expat or libxml2 XML parsing engines.
