From there, code that scans devices for various information is modified to account for the possibility that any given device may be encrypted, using the information contained in the Partitions instance as needed to decrypt devices.

Looks good in general.  I agree with Bill's partition->device comment.
Also, it might be nice to add support for entering a global passphrase
when creating encrypted devs also for consistency's sake
