I understand that there are challenges to implementing encryption of the
file names, but as it stands now I would describe these tools as
unreleasable. I encourage the maintainers to withdraw this package from
the distribution until this glaring design defect can be corrected.

An encrypted directory that leaks the names, directory structure, and
file sizes in plain text is almost completely useless, and is in many
ways worse than simply trying to hide them with dotfiles and
misdirection -- at least in that case, I'm not waving a gigantic red
flag that says "hey! here's all my secret shit! here's how i keep it
organized, what i call it, and how big each file is!"
