Daniel Hahler : I can reproduce this bug (which can be considered as a
security flaw) in Hardy and Intrepid. This bug can be reproduced in
these conditions :
Pre-requisites :
Having a configured cryptsetup with a luks partition and applying the patch
provided in bug 139363 to re-enable
I am using a different setup now, so I can no longer help with tracking
down the problem.
Daniel Hahler still seems to see it in feisty, so you might want to keep
this issue open anyway (even though it does seem to be fixed in gutsy).

[edgy] usplash prevents passwords from being not echoed
Confirmed in Feisty/Edgy.
A safety workaround is to switch early to console 1 (ctrl-alt-f1), just when
the keyboard is initialized: then the password won't get displayed.

Status:
This appears to be fixed in Gutsy (usplash 0.5.2): you get a password
prompt through usplash
