Title:
  "Encrypt my home folder" should be disabled when "Log in
  automatically" is selected

Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Confirmed
Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Counterpart to bug #698183.

  By default, during install the pre-selected option is "Require my
  password to log in" , and therefore the "Encrypt my home folder"
  option is also available.

  However when we switch to "Log in automatically" , "Encrypt my home folder" option is again available to select, even though the encrypt option _requires_ user to enter password everytime!
  So what happens is, when we check the  encrypt option the the radiocheck automatically switches to the "Require password.." option.

  Instead, when the user changes the option to "Log in automatically"
  the encrypt option must be disabled so that it is clearer that the
  option is available only along with the other "Require password.. "
  option. (this is similar behavior to other preferences dialogues in
  GNOME)
