    Your comment is spot on. e2ee is critical when there is server side replication or when you are using a public server, but neither is typically the case with Databag. e2ee imposes some limitations such as preventing server side processing of content which is useful for streaming. In my opinion e2ee is needed when you don't know where the content resides, but when you do it's overkill.
