Thank you!

One thing of note (also for the benefit of other readers): there a few
more steps one would take (that the gpg plugin does), e.g. making sure
no unencrypted undo/redo list is saved. Disabling the swapfile is one of
those things. To ensure this is consistent, the gpg plugin basically
only works for new files if they are named foo.txt.gpg.

Best,
Tobias
