As I understand they have no relation, cryptsetup is a tool destined to
aid the creation of dm-crypt devices. EncFS is different to dm-crypt, it
uses FUSE instead of the linux device-mapper, but maybe I'm wrong.

yes, i would like to see encfs in d-i, because it lets create different
virtual filesystem for each user under the same partition. However, it
has also some drawbacks.
