Is it possible to have gopass encrypt the file structure? about gopass HOT 1 OPEN

Hey there, @Crown0815. Though there are many contributors and maintainers keen on implementing something like this, there's a lot of concerns that make it not as straightforward as one would hope.

1. There's a lot of integrations built on top of Gopass that would break due to a feature like this.
2. The majority of users of Gopass utilize Git, and most encryption implementations don't play very well with Git. Even if we were to use something like Fossil SCM (still in early preview and without documentation), that's yet another thing that needs to be developed and tested.
3. The ideal future version of Gopass will likely not be using GPG as the default (see GPG Criticism), and while age has been implemented for a while now, it is still experimental.
4. Gopass is extremely focused on being cross-platform. This means that whichever back-end we use needs to provide "The same user experience on Linux, MacOS, *BSD or Windows". Bash scripts such as pass-code aren't well known for their compatibility with Windows, unfortunately, and would almost certainly expect the user to have previously set up WSL2.

There's discussions of varying length about this on #1974, #2275, #673, and most notably #1560, so if you have any input or opinions on the matter, it would be appreciated. Rest assured though, everyone wants this feature :)
