    I agree that the re-encryption could have some risks, but I had assumed that during the conversion we would be working in a copy and only once all steps are successfully done, the original data would be removed.

    For me, these would be the key parts it should ensure:

    - Integrity of the data: this means that we need to work in "a copy" to allow the rollback if something goes wrong without loosing data.
    - Folder structure for messages and tags are kept as they are in the original encryption.

    I truly hope this gets implemented soon, otherwise we are using a service with a expire date depending on when you first logged in; of course, nowadays you can assume you lose data and can create new keys and forget about previous data, but this is currently a no-sense to me.
