Re: [O] Documentation suggestion re: buffers containing crypted entries

[Darlan Cavalcante Moreira]

I was hit by this last week when I was investigating why my emacs
initialization was taking so long. Later I found out that org-crypt was the
culprit, since it added a "sit for 5s" in order for the user to actually
see this warning.

The problem is that org-crypt tests the value of the auto-save-default
variable during loading time. This reflects the default behavior and not
the actual auto-save status of the current buffer.

Maybe a variable to disable this warning could be introduced so that the
user could disable it after understanding the problem.
