Title:
  boot cryptsetup passphrase prompt displays passphrase in clear text

Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Since updating to oneiric, plymouth displays the boot cryptsetup passphrases in the clear!
  It's asterisks on the first device, which alone is a problem, see bug 778659.
  Filing this new bug, since passphrases in the clear are another can of worms.
