The problem with that is that cache and "temporary" copies are not necessarily likely to be encrypted... For example, every time you open an Office file, a second copy (~whatever) is created. Also, not all users are bright enough (or are too lazy) to remember to place their "important" files into the safe. Also, the process of classifying "important" files becomes too subjective. Another consideration is user account information -- passwords and likes -- SAM, application credentials, VPN accounts, etc.
