The solution I was leaning towards that I think might still make sense for my use case is to have an encrypted partition that I use as a home directory for a privileged user. Then I can leave Game Mode ~unprotected and have a limited-use desktop mode, but have sessions/files etc. only be unlocked while specifically logged in as one user.

Does the gamescope session have unrestricted access to your whole disk? That's part of what I was wondering about where creating a separate user might be moot if it's just accessible from inside of Game Mode.

Can you elaborate on this? Like it has scarily-elevated permissions, or its too easy for people to get into despite having a pin, or some combination of both?

I'm trying to get the sense of different levels of security ranging "nosy person I handed the deck to wants to look at my DMs" to "nation state pulls the hard drive."
