I had another question regarding encryption of secrets. The reason you've mentioned is to prevent secrets from remaining in plain-text either during transmission to/from etcd or within etcd at rest.

Did you consider using https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/encrypt-... instead? It has been there for quite some time (1.10 I think) and fixes all your concerns.

(We had similar issues with storing secrets in etcd, and went with k8s encryption instead).
