Ok, I have accepted the initramfs-tools parts of this fix as they seem to make sense (and were carrying some other changes too).
But then when I was looking at the cryptsetup parts, well, I think I'd like to slow down a little. Have all these changes been consulted with the Ubuntu security team? Since I'm worried about the mentioned behavior change in cryptsetup. I would feel much better if the security team gave a +1 for this change before we proceed further, since it is touching sensitive parts of a system's privacy.
