I suspect that I'm wasting the time of list readers.

What I said is in favour of Truecrypt to remains included,
in TAILS, also a deprecated option, until a mature
and better option of LUKS will be avalaible in Debian
or Debian-Backports (Cryptsetup 1.6.0) can be included
in TAILS. (tcrypt option)

About desktop automation, I propose nothing, but simply
tell that no easy desktop automation can be done if you
cannot say that an encrypted volume is there, without reliyng
on dirty tricks like use of persistence.

IMO, no desktop automation is needed in this particular case.
