Works a treat actually, this is the line in /etc/cryptotab:

/dev/loop0  /dev/hda5       /home                ext3       twofish256
noatime,user_xattr

It hadnt occurred to me earlier that the last field was obviously the
mount options :)

Does end up hammering the CPU though, not sure if that's because of the
filesystem being encrypted or not though - running beagled in debug mode
to try and find out...
