A short amendment to this:

- Fedora cryptsetup is patched, removing the udevadm settle altogether.
That's why it was working for most of you. (Thanks to Warren for helping
to debug this)

- In addition I don't think its a good idea to include anything in a
udev-rule that does user interaction, since udev has an built-in
event-timeout.
