GStreamer exists for playing sounds. Putting functionality for encryption or playing sounds into GIO itself would pull in a lot of code which would not be used by most projects which depend on GIO. Instead, you should be looking at adding functions to those libraries which take a GFile as a parameter. Are you looking to fill a specific gap in functionality for a project you’re working on?
