I looked at the code for pass recently, and thought it was a nice example of something where bash is absolutely adequate.

You point out (in discussing the design of pass):

> There is one slight drawback to all the simplicity, and that is an information disclosure inherent to the design: pass stores all folder and file names in clear text, so even if you fully trust GPG, you should probably not put this repo into a public place like Github, because this may expose your account names and other metadata.

What's not completely obvious from a cursory read is whether gopass improves upon that. Also, the multiple stores feature looks like it might be quite nice, but a lengthier example would be very helpful!

Edit: improve clarity

I was just thinking the same thing and was wondering if I missed that? I have been working on a similar project for keeping bookmarks and haven't found (yet) an easy way to obfuscate directory and file names in a way that doesn't make the tree structure look like a mess but still makes it difficult for the majority of people to "crack".
