[Owncloud] Encryption in OC 5

[Frank Karlitschek]

Hi Henning,

unfortunately we don't have a real schedule yet.
But it will be a matter of weeks and not month :-)

Your first point will be addressed.
The second point is no possible at the moment. This would be an admin backdoor which is just he opposite of what we wan to have with this feature. Maybe someone adds his as an option in a later release.

Maybe there could be a "master key" for the administrator to be able to retrieve passwords for the users. Telling anyone that he will lose his files in case he can't rember his password scares people :).
