I looked over the new branch and found it much more readable. And
although some of the patches are not 100% clean yet (at least one
contains a trivial change that wasn't advertised in the commit), I like it.

Just a remark about the cryptsetup/crypttab rework (that one is scary,
and I didn't read it in details yet): The "last column" of crypttab can
contain space, meaning that everything past the fourth column will be
treated as one column (the options column). Did you take that into
account? I don't think so.

I know that crypttab is ugly and scary, and I was planning to replace it
with something sane, I just never got around to actually doing it.
