Not sure what you mean by toplevel, but the way includes are handled is
to check at what level the include is happening and promote the included
content to that level.  That would also make the encrypted subtree
independent of any movements in the hierarchy, which is IMHO desirable.

FWIW, I prefer the other solution since it is more general.  Again, the
content from the decryption process can be treated like an include
(except for display rather than during export) or rather an "inline
file", which might be worth having independently of encrypted subtree as
well.
