Probably not for 8.0, maybe for 8.1.
Geli can be used not only with key-files, but with passphrases too.
Good idea to have this ability, for example not during system start, but
manually.
Creating such partition: generate keyfile, enter super-user passphrase (to
recover), enter user passphrase.
Mounting and working with such partition: during start or manually - enter
passphrase, mount to specified directory.
