I agree with you that partman-crypto should offer to generate a
passphrase, but I have not attempted to do that so close to release.

I've made the suggested wording change:

partman-crypto (21ubuntu3) gutsy; urgency=low

  * Disable partition erasing by default, as it's very slow and only of
    moderate value (LP: #151244).
  * Warn that the passphrase cannot be recovered if lost (helps with LP
    #151264).

... adding the following text:

 There is no way to recover this passphrase if you lose it. To avoid
 losing data, you should normally write down the passphrase and keep it
 in a safe place separate from this computer.
