A loopback device is a very special device that allows you to mount a
normal file as it was a physical device. loopbacks can be encrypted:
this becomes very useful sometimes. 

Consider, as na example, that you need to encypt a few files, nothing
big, let's say 100 MB or so. Encrypting an entire partition could be too
much. Then a cryptoloop could be the right solution to your
problem............
