I just wrote a Python wrapper for "cryptsetup status", that not only lists all devices for a (major, minor) combo, but also the pair (major, minor). In addition, it can display status for all crypto devices (just give no argument) and displays the mount points. May not be perfect and may have bugs, but as far as I am concerned solves the issue. The script is below (I think the list does not support attachments). Feedback, bug-reports, etc. welcome.
