I talked to Eric Harney, who did the original implementation of Cinder volume encryption, and he said that there was no support added to Nova to boot this kind of image (as it was not part of the intended use case).

He thinks the instance may go to ACTIVE status but be unusable. In such a case, what would happen if the createImage action were called on the instance? (Would be a pretty dumb thing to do, since you'd presumably get a snapshot that wasn't bootable, but this bug would happen when you deleted the unusable snapshot.)
