Thanks Michael. I will look more into auth. What is your idea? To be
able to use something like auth-source-search, to pass features of the
org-passwords database as secrets? 

I only use auth for gnus and jabber, so my .authinfo.gpg is only five
lines. What setup could benefit on that? Can auth send secrets to other
applications, like a web browser?

Best,

Jorge.
