Well, if it is decided that generally providing users a good out-of-the-box 
encrypted-drive-support experience to be an acceptable rationale, then it 
should be of genuine use for every Ubuntu flavor and added to the platform 
seeds. On that part I probably should mention that when this was dicussed by 
Kubuntu there were no strong feelings towards not having it on the CD, we just 
considered the presented rationale insufficient.
In either case I do think that this should be brought into the platform seed 
and not the specific ones, or if the rationale fails to justify requirements 
for the platform seed to bring it once more up with the specific seeds.
Since this is essentially a platform feature, one ought to be able to expect it 
on each major Ubuntu flavor, having these sort of features get adopted in 
Kubuntu but not Ubuntu or in Ubuntu but not Kubuntu would cause a major 
headache amongst the target audience of having cryptsetup be part of the 
default install. Whether a graphical user interface / user interaction is 
implemented ontop of the platform support is then a decision that has to be 
made for each flavor individually anyway.
