Pass is pretty much a glorified bash script using GPG and Git.

Adding filename encryption on top would be a nightmare, not to mention that terminal suggestions would be pretty much broken.

Storing all that information in plaintext just to make terminal suggestions easier to implement sounds shortsighted to me.
