Maybe you remember our discussion years ago about encrypt.el, where I proposed a neutral API with at least some symmetric ciphers implemented in ELisp and C in the Emacs core (essentially what Lars was requesting). Could something like that work within the EPA/EPG structure, so some special invocation of `epg-encrypt-string' could bypass the external callout to GPG? Thank you Ted
