What happens if you normally want a particular uuid to be activated on
boot...but there is a power fail and restore at 3am?  Wouldn't you still
be stuck with a system waiting for the password when what you may want
would be for the system to come up without that device?  Wouldn't a
rd_LUKS_timeout=<X seconds> make sense?
