 Description   

There are many *-encrypt- options and they *all have to be enabled to prevent data leaks.

A possible solution could be a “meta-option” --encryption that would enable or disable all other encryption-related options.

A much simpler solution is to provide a "preset" file, lilke

/etc/my.cnf.d/enable_encryption.preset

[mariadb]
aria-encrypt-tables
encrypt-binlog
encrypt-tmp-disk-tables
encrypt-tmp-files
loose-innodb-encrypt-log
loose-innodb-encrypt-tables

and let the user !include it into his my.cnf as needed.
