Grub installs itself and boots from Partitionless Btrfs disk.
It is handy for straight forward installations.

However, IF you need boot partition (ie. initramfs and kernel to boot
from encrypted root) its another story.

Swap is an issue. But you may try zram (compressed ram swap).
I've got some crashes on 3.14. Thus, waiting for it to stabilize.
