If I edit a file from an encrypted archive (encrypted
file names + encrypted files), 7-Zip asks me to update
the archive, which is good. However, 7-Zip updates the
edited file *without encryption*, which is not as
intended. Furthermore there is no easy way to tell that
the file is not encrypted anymore.

    This is a quite frustrating bug. It means that the 7zip file
    must be decompressed and recompressed manually.

    The bug statement is not very accurate. Updating strips the encryption of file names only, not completely. But, this by itself is annoying.
