Am I tripping or if you upgrade Signal Desktop, it saves all your messages in plain text (messages.json) + attachments locally so you can re-import them in the newer version? #fail #wtf

What does harddrive encryption have to do with anything ? This is about signal not handling data in a trusted way.
There is no way for Signal to handle data in a more trusted way that isn't better (or only) achieved with other tools. Please state exactly what your threat model is and how you think Signal encrypting its messages file would help.

What is the point of signal if it does NOT encrypt the message file. Even the registration lock pincode as password would be better than plain text. If you don't exclude the folder chances are all those contents get indexed before you know it.

Again, please state exactly what you think that encryption would achieve. What attack are you trying to prevent?
