This would be a very useful feature. I avoid using persistence due to
security concerns if the usb is lost and things line my Ubuntu One login
were on it. (which has happened to me.) The fix looks trivial to me and
I'm sure it would get a lot of usage if available and known.

This article covers the change needed.

An updated post of what needs to be done for yakkety (16.10) is at:
https://archimedesden.wordpress.com/2017/01/09/encrypted-persistent-ubuntu-livecd-16-10-redux/

It seems trivial to have this included in the iso. Most of the work of
figuring out what changes to make have been done, so what's the down-
side? It looks like recent isos do not include dm-crypt nor cryptsetup
as the blog post alludes to. So they need to be added back, but its not
that much extra data.
