Steganography is useful, in particular, and GnuPG doesn't support it.
Users could hide secret information, or messages for other users, or
watermarks.
Steganography is certainly useful, but the question is whether users
want to use encrypt.el.

I think cryptography is a field where experimentation is very
important. Wouldn't you like to see Emacs become a breeding ground for
cryptography work?
Encryption programs generally need to be fast.
Emacs Lisp doesn't seem very good for the job.
