Cryptsetup requires root access and I don't want that for my backup mechanism. Also I don't want to call sudo in a cron job. The encrypted drive should be mountable by a regular user (e.g., automounting an encrypted usb stick every 10 min and copy something onto it; I don't want to keep the stick mounted).
I would be happy to hack it together with dbus-send, however, when I was monitoring my dbus as nautilus was mounting the encrypted drive, I couldn't collect a lot of useful information.
