I was confusing the fact that Tails Greeter, not live-persist, unlocks
the LUCKS volume with a similar-looking fantasy where it's Tails
Greeter, not live-persist, that mounts the unlocked volume. In the
latter case the live-boot code that live-persist runs would actually
reuse the mountpoint, and we'd get what I suggest. Sorry for the
confusion, I should have looked it up.

I did push... with the wrong branch merged. This is now reverted and the
correct branch is merged and pushed. Sorry for making it more difficult
to write the 0.20.1 changelog...

Cheers!
