    Hum ok but I'm not fully convinced on this one, it looks like we are doing the wrong choice to try to make the plugin more usable than it is going to be.

    Not directly related to this specific request but in terms of usability it would be nice if we display the large random string only if the user ask for it because I do not know a lot of people capable of doing cryptographic operations just by looking at a string.

    Hi Thomas,

    We prefer to separate the empty strings and the other ones because if an empty field will be encrypted, it will be displayed in its encrypted form, so the end user can not detect that the field is empty.

    Hello,

    I'm not sure that allowing an empty value like it is possible when the artifact is created is the right call here. After all, an empty string is valid value too. Why do not encrypt the value every time?
