The project aims to enhance the experimental PGP/GPG encryption support in LibreOffice by addressing several shortcomings, such as the need to select recipients anew for every save and the difficulty in finding the right keys. The project will also focus on developing smart searching, traversing, and filtering capabilities for large keyrings, as well as adding asynchronous querying for improved performance. The plan involves several steps, including understanding the current implementation of PGP/GPG encryption support, implementing recipient selection for PGP/GPG encryption, developing smart searching, traversing, and filtering capabilities for large keyrings, adding asynchronous querying for improved performance, and finalizing the project.
