I don't think the workaround in #12 is practically useful unless you
want to disallow password-based logins. The password is needed anyway to
unlock the ecryptfs key, so imho typing it in once on first login is way
easier than authenticating via public key and then manually unlocking
the encrypted home. Especially since key based authentication works fine
on subsequent sessions i.e. if the user is already logged in at least
once and the home directory is therefore unlocked.
