Another idea would be to say, that it's generally the duty of the system
itself (e.g. init.d scripts) or other initrd-boot-skripts to assure,
that the file is accessible.

That way one could add boot-scripts like:

mount-usb: that contains a:
#!/bin/sh
PREREQ=""
prereqs()
{
        echo "$PREREQ"
}

case $1 in
        prereqs)
                prereqs
                exit 0
                ;;
        esac
...

and a umount-usb: that contains a
#!/bin/sh
PREREQ="cryptroot"    <-----------------
prereqs()
{
        echo "$PREREQ"
}

case $1 in
        prereqs)
                prereqs
                exit 0
                ;;
        esac...


But then one would have to change cryptroot to prereq mount-usb.
Is that possible, better?

What do you think?
