BOM Encrypting/decrypting field feature

I know for experience user, one can create Encrypted fields using the Business Object Mapper (BOM) Custom Code option, but that would require to do the following:
  1. Build the BO Partial class,
  2. Modify the fields to be encrypted with the correct code,
  3. Copy this code to the BOM Custom Code
  4. Check the "Create Descriptor in the BO
  5. Build the BO Partial class again.
I know, this option allow us to have full control over the type of encryption to be use, but most of the time, the encryption needed is just very simple and using the MicroFour.StrataFrame.Security.Cryptography classes may be enough, so why not having an option in the BOM "Custom Field Properties" to just "Encrypt" that property with default settings, or even allow us to change some settings like the vector key to use.
