I agree and I already planned to work on TrueCrypt / VeraCrypt support in udisks and GNOME Disks. > But of course it's a matter of "how much we really want TrueCrypt > volumes support in a GUI" vs. "the UX regression of adding a tool with > duplicated functionality". Right. In my experience, TrueCrypt is something many users miss in Tails. The most obvious use case is securely sharing files via storage devices with non-Tails / non-Linux systems. For example users who want to use Tails to edit documents and share them with others who do not (yet) use Tails. This is possible with cryptsetup, but I would like to support this via a GUI, because if this is too hard to do, some users will instead use less secure systems for this purpose.
