Not that it helps in this instance, but I'd recommend considering a key escrow 
policy up-front.  There are disk encryption products that support a centralized 
key escrow.  I think we use PGP whole-disk encryption for laptops that carry 
sensitive information here at Cornell.

Cornell's key escrow policy is published, here:

Is this kind of password demand at all common?
