Thank you for the new update and all your work on NNCP. This will
be a very nice improvement!

The option to use an encrypted temporary file for nncp-exec will
be perfect for me and the temp file solution is fine. chunked for
NNCP isn't important for my use case; although the files are
sometimes many GB in size, that is still smaller than the
transport (whether network or airgapped) and thus the resumable
transfers are sufficient for my needs.

Thanks again!
