That will make it much harder to convert old > volumes. The goal is to remove the actual crypto code (and drivers that only implement old algorithms). Read-only support means you still have to support the algorithm. 12.x already refuses to create new volumes with these algorithms but permits access to existing ones. -- John Baldwin
