I'm slightly adverse to adding custom scripts, because I find it very
compelling for the LUKS unlock solution to be something that is possible
using only stuff in the base systemd implementation. That gives us a
guarantee that it will work in any distro that supports systemd (of a
new enough version).  This would imply that custom script would need
to be added to systemd, at which point we might as well just avoid the
script.

Hmm, yes, the problem is more general than just the trailing
NUL. Machine generated recovery keys can contain arbitrary
embedded NULs, which is fundamentally incompatible with the
grub patches today.

So I guess we really do need to invent a new GUID explicitly
for LUKS keys supporting the full 8-bit binary space, and
document at the existing Grub targetted GUID is a limited
design.

The keyfile path can, however, point to a AF_UNIX socket path.
So you can have a script on the other end of the path that does
anything at all. Still as per my earlier point, I find it very
appealing to have a solution not reliant on us writing an
extension script.

So I'm again inclined to change my mind and say we SHOULD invent
a new GUID for full 8-bit binary LUKS unlock keys, distinct from
the previous grub GUID.
