I think that any decision on this topic has to take into account whether someone, out there, is making this better option available, and usable without running command lines by hand, and without running a TC-specific GUI. I mean: if we can reasonably believe that such a better option will be available in the foreseeable future, then I'm personally 100% fine with keeping TC until then. But if nobody is working on making this happen, then every single day we keep shipping TC, more people will be getting used to it being available, and then it becomes harder and harder to ever drop it. > About desktop automation, I propose nothing, but simply tell that no > easy desktop automation can be done if you cannot say that an > encrypted volume is there, without reliyng on dirty tricks like use > of persistence. I do agree. This being said, being unable to do it automatically doesn't prevent GNOME to allow the user to do it easily (without resorting to cryptsetup on the command-line).
