Bug Description
This bug is similar to Bug #365596.
A commenter there had an excellent suggestion. eCryptfs should, perhaps, add an entry to /etc/fstab that looks like this:
/home /.home-backup none ro,bind
This would ensure that encrypted copies of all files are available at all times to backup utilities at /.home-backup.

Subscribed Colin Watson. Colin, do you think this would be acceptable in the ecryptfs-utils packaging for Karmic? Proper conditionals, of course.
