Is there any way to use FileVault on MacOS except on home directories? I don't much want to use it on my home directory; it doesn't play well with Time Machine (remember that availability is also a security property); besides, different directories of mine have different sensitivity levels.

According to an Apple security person who spoke here about a year ago, you can use the underlying CLI to do everything FileVault does, but at some other point(s) in the directory tree than home directories.
