As I was reading parts of that wiki page again (again in the LUKS section) I
started to realize that (to me) the more important thing (rather than creating
backup passwords) is creating a backup of the LUKS header.

While storage in a file fine for trivial passwords such as those for
social sites storing important ones on the computer is a bad idea,
