Because that would interfere with Ubuntu's boot speed ambitions, I
recon. I.e. there might be cases (e.g. with key files, RFID-cards etc.)
where it might make sense to continue booting while cryptsetup does its
work unattendedly.

So, isn't it a solution to simply make root filesystem depend on
cryptsetup in cases where interactive input is needed? I.e. when no
other (xsplash, key file) method is used?
