Dear Maintainer,

The `crypto_check_mountpoints` script prevents you from setting up an
encrypted root filesystem without an additional unencrypted /boot
filesystem.
While this may be a requirement for e.g. grub2, it is not
necessarily required when not using grub2 but using UKIs to build EFI
executables that can directly mount the encrypted root filesystem.
While UKIs aren't currently supported, I would still expect partman-crypto
to let me partition an encrypted root filesystem without separate /boot
filesystem, at least after having ignored the warnings or in combination
with the `nobootloader` udeb.

I would suggest letting users ignore the warning and continue if they
really want to, similar to the warning by LVM2.
