For a good start, these don't even need to be encrypted (as long as it's mentioned in the manpage).

Will try to get this done. Should be encrypted from the start, though, to avoid an opportunity for shooting oneself in the foot.

Implemented and merged to master. Both xattr names and values are encrypted.
