There is #800147 already.  Quoting Jonas' Message #17:

   “What we need to do is take a look at the systemd cryptsetup
    implementation and understand how it works. Probably it's possible
    to leave the dm-crypt unlocking to systemd whenever the required
    features are available and pass the task to the old initscript only
    when additional features (e.g. like keyscript) are required.
    Otherwise we would have to disable the systemd cryptsetup/dm-crypt
    processing features and stick to the init script for now.

    In the long term, implementing the missing features in the systemd
    code should be the way to go.”
