Of course. That's what Xiphos' mod.mgr does, or any other UI's 
equivalent. It's just a matter of whether it examines what's available 
and makes that info available.

The *.conf held by the repo (mods.tar.gz) are acquired when the mod.mgr 
is opened. Each is checked for CipherKey and the mod.mgr's offer of 
what's available to install is marked appropriately. The user decides 
what he wants, checks boxes as needed, and installs. mod.mgr shows the 
lock symbol both before and after install.

There is a tooltip attached to the column heading: "The lock icon means 
this module is encrypted, and requires that you purchase an unlock key 
from the content owner." So the user is properly warned.
