Could support be added for just crypto setup without LVM, using

It would be nice to have the support to have crypto without using LVM,
of course it is possible to do it manually, but hey, isn't that what wishlist
bugs are for?

I find this very unlikely to happen.

The idea of the guided partitioning schemes is to provide a couple of decent defaults for unexperienced users while still giving "powerusers" the full freedom of choice trough the manual partitioning.

Cluttering up the guided partitioning choices with several confusingly similar choices would just reduce the value of the guided partitioning and bring it closer to the manual one.
