We now have encrypted swap.  This should help matters tremendously.

Additionally, I recommend making /tmp a tmpfs in memory, by adding the 
following line to your /etc/fstab:
tmpfs /tmp tmpfs rw


If other programs copy data out of a user's home directory to other locations 
*on disk*, bugs should be filed against those programs for leaking user data.

At this point I'm closing the eCryptfs aspects of this bug.

Thanks,
