Martin-

The fix, as proposed, will only solve this comprehensively for *newly*
created encrypted-private setups, with the patched
ecryptfs-setup-private.

I didn't think it appropriate for upgrading the package to go digging
in user's unmounted ~/Private directory, creating symlinks to the
readme.txt and .desktop file.

If this is really, really what we want, we could hook
ecryptfs-mount-private with a *hack*, that would check for the
existence of these links in an unmounted Private dir, and create them
just before mounting.

Is that what you'd want?
