1Password TeamWe include the path to the Data folder (albeit along with everything else) in How to uninstall 1Password so that you could remove 1Password and all its associated files. But personally, I'd much rather someone get in touch if they were having a problem than potentially do damage to that folder since it's what contains the actual data, so I must admit I'm glad we don't encourage customers to go in there. It's rare that we ever have to direct anyone to that folder, let alone do anything with it since there aren't that many moving parts in that folder. Almost no-one should be fiddling in that folder without guidance from Customer Support. Those that do are very much doing so at their own risk.
On your second point, I'm not entirely sure, to be honest with you. You would have to recreate the key derivation and decryption functions of 1Password, and the ability to parse the SQL to be able to interact with the items, by which point you would've basically rewritten a good chunk of 1Password's underlying structure. Is there a particular use case you're thinking of here?
