The mechanism that makes it so that we no longer need to enter our LUKS passphrase twice is pretty cool:

No configuration is required: GRUB’s procfs and luks modules are loaded automatically when encrypted devices are declared via luks-device-mapping (see Mapped Devices). I somehow missed this the first time around and was wondering why there were no configuration examples. Brilliant!
