[Bug 1223622] Re: add support for crypttab mounting of luks devices with detached headers

[DiagonalArg]

@Glen - please see this thread, where Jim F is concerned with the same
question (and apparently has some code of his own).  You'll see he's
worked out where bugs & feature requests should be made for the
cryptsetup scripts (Debian), as opposed to cryptsetup itself:

Title:
  add support for crypttab mounting of luks devices with detached
  headers

Status in “cryptsetup” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  A detached luks header for a luks device is a new feature in
  cryptsetup 1.4.  This is a feature request to allow the unlocking of
  luks devices with detached headers, both as a root device (ie in the
  initrd) as well as using the init system.

  The attached patch only solves part of the issue, support in the init
  system.
