sorry for top-replying, yahoo web client is braindead.
This is how I got around this:

Judging by your response, this is unlikely to be accepted, so I have to
maintain it myself, but as long as it does what I need, that's fine.
Thanks,IvanK.

No, this is currently not available. The killing spree will try to
unmount everything it can, detach all loopbacks it can, and
disassemble all DM devices it can (of which LUKS is one type). You are
shutting down after all...
