Some activities are useless to encrypt, i.e. social networking and
some other . Encription gives useless overhead.
I want 1 Qubes OS unencrypted and 1 Qubes OS encrypted for everything
else + activities from unencrypted Qubes also enabled.

For example:

 /var/lib/qubes/appvms/public-activity-vm/

or if it does any sense I may share files indiividually:
/var/lib/qubes/appvms/public-activity-vm/*

run same VM in diffrent boots of Qubes OS on the same computer.

A is not encrypted, B is encrypted, A never used to mount something
from B and has no clue about B luks password.

A is not that secure as B. If A is compromised I'm not glad, but it's
not very important - all accounts I would use from A are already
somewhat public.

It looks that before booting into B I should check bootloader and
/boot consistency of B w/ some sort of usb stick.
