Agreed.  Go ahead and write a patch! :-)

Sorry, but my perl knowledge is very limited.  Looking through the
code, I can usually figure out what it's doing,  I was able to
create the patch that simply added the --cipher option to the existing
code in diskdrake, but altering the dialog to add selection of which
cipher to use, would probably take me a very long time.

You should probably open an enhancement bug report, requesting the
change, that can then be assigned to the diskdrake maintainer.

Btw, I had no idea that luks encryption was compatible with truecrypt.
Thanks for that info.
