tcplay also uses dm-crypt. The author found that the Truecrypt format
documentation had a lot of errors; see the tcplay README for details.
Sure, just libcryptsetup is designed to support various formats so
adding Truecrypt container is just logical step.
(and tcplay reimplements a lot of code which cryptsetup already have)
You can of course package tcplay separately as well.
