Nice post! You mentioned that you implemented this wrapper for backups. Apart from creating a virtual file system for sandboxing perhaps, isn't this generally slower? Maybe I am not getting the exact purpose of this task.

Slower than what? This is for creating encrypted versions of your files before you back them up, so your backup program will only see encrypted files.
