The doc makes a point of saying different passwords can be used to encrypt different records.  Fine.  But can different passwords be specified at *de*cryption time?  The idea is to be able to run one command that shows all the information in the file, decrypted (e.g., if I am the administrator and want to see everything). 

As things stand, it seems that is not possible.  I'm not asking for the functionality to be implemented, but it should at least be discussed in the manual.
