I think that plausible deniability would be a good thing, even if it is
somewhat difficult to rely upon (the xkcd strip explains this well
ihih), and maybe it goes beyond the scopes of LUKS. Nonetheless it would
be nice to have such an option.
One thing I'd like to address however, regarding a possible future
implementation of truecrypt-style "hidden devices". If you'll ever plan
to do such a thing, remember that they are absolutely useless (except
maybe for USB sticks) until it will be not possible to use something
different from FAT16 for the host device. I tell you this because I had
many, many difficulties using a hidden device for my home, until at last
I had to abandon the idea.
