No, org-map-entries should be perfect for this, and it does not  
restore the buffer.
This should really well.  The only thing that might happen, by  
replacing the
subtree, that it does not know correctly where to continue and  
therefore it might do
every tree twice?

(org-mark-subtree)  ;; this will include the headline


(re-search-forward "^\\*+ .*?:ENCRYPT:" nil t)
