But that doesn't seem to help if you have LUKS devices that you do want activated during boot (I haven't tested so could have the wrong end of the stick). Seems like there may be a need to have configured LUKS volumes block the boot process but not stuff that gets autodetected during boot, at least as a switch for the admin to decide..
