The bad points with using an encrypted fs maybe in the OT case, is that to move the encrypted file to somewhere else, you need to move the hardware containing the fs :-(. Also, it doesn't allow changing the encryption key very often. I think an encrypted fs addresses other security/confidentiality issues, but then the OT should be more precise about his needs/the context. My 2 cents.
