Funny you should bring that up I was considering that myself for the 
same reason.

On the other hand I write history records when we do certain key 
management operations so there might be a chicken-egg problem :-)

The history is already protected from end users on the system because it 
requires secpolicy_sys_config() pass, however that doesn't come into 
play once the disks are stolen and someone is looking at the raw disks 
elsewhere.

I'll look into it and play around with it a bit.
