Uploaded a fix to karmic, though it doesn't involve a bind mount.
Instead, all of /var/lib/ecryptfs and the user's .Private dir has been moved to /home/.ecryptfs/$USER.
This allows the user to access this data, and back it up whether or not the home dir is mounted.
I actually think it might be a good idea to provide something like this for Jaunty users.
I suspect a number of Jaunty users upgrading to Karmic may well inadvertently delete their /var/lib/ecryptfs data, and not have a backup.
