Okay.

Why we have allow in Valentina have only Structure encryption?

This is NOT protection of data.
    this is protection of one Valentina developer,
    from another Valentina developer or from just
    Valentina Studio.

Anybody else cannot open your db using Valentina engine.

And we did have developers which was in need encrypt STRUCTURE of DB,
Because they think they have complex structure, and THIS structure itself is
secret from other competitors of their apps
