Description

One security concern for Bitcoin Core is that wallet.dat files always contain unencrypted public keys so an attacker can always gain knowledge of balances. It would be very useful to use GS to encrypt/decrypt wallet.dat files either in an automated fashion or manually (e.g. user enters the password).
