Comment (by gziolo):

 > The only thing that I think we should fix here is the display in
 plaintext in wp-admin/options.php. That's of course not encryption, but a
 small tweak we should add in for parity with how these values are
 displayed elsewhere.

 @jorgefilipecosta is working on the fix in https://github.com/WordPress
 /wordpress-develop/pull/11158. He even created a dedicated ticket #64793
 for that, as it looks like we will move this one to the 7.1 release.
