Do we want to default to requiring a master password to encrypt and

I think you have it right in your implementation: by default, no,
not required.
Yes, that sounds right.
Or do we start unencrypted, offer a "encrypt" checkbox in the
accounts
dialog, and also when making a repository backup/dump? (I think I am
slightly in favor of this.)
Yup, perhaps we could hear from Mimi the best place for this.
I agree that the best place for this feature would be in the accounts
dialog, but I shudder at the idea of having to reposition things
again (and bkirsch might as well). So could we add a File menu item
right beneath Accounts... that says: File>>Encrypt passwords...
that pops up a dialog where you can enter a master password?
=====
Set a master password to restrict access to your account passwords.
Master password: [ ]
Confirm password: [ ]
[Cancel] [Encrypt passwords]
=====
Does that sound right?
Do we want to provide encrypting arbitrary items/attributes? (I
wouldn't
worry about this until after Preview.)
Yup, sounds like feature creep right now. Perhaps best to wait
until we hear some user asking for the feature. :) Any thoughts Mimi?
This would be easy to do with a list of checkboxes. I can't think of
any we have OOTB that would be obvious candidates. But yes, probably
post-Preview.
