Hello, I can confirm this. I tried creating a LUKS+Ext4 partition on an external hard-drive, using the nautilus integration. I am on Ubuntu 13.10, 64-bit.
I am able to:
- select the drive (to select "Format...")
- select the filesystem type (LUKS+Ext4)
- choose a password
- re-enter it correctly
- click on the "Format" box.

A dialog then tells me that if I proceed all the data in the disk will be lost (as it should be), so I proceed. But then, nothing happens! No error dialog, no confirmation dialog, nothing whatsoever...

However, using the gnome disk utilities I have no problem, and the formatting is a success.
