I don't think we should mark any installer crashes as non-blockers when there is a good chance users would hit it. I believe this particular bug should have been an Alpha blocker:

"The installer must be able to complete an installation using the entire disk, existing free space, or existing Linux partitions methods, with or without encryption or LVM enabled"
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_16_Alpha_Release_Criteria

Whether I do or don't provide the password to my existing encrypted partitions doesn't really matter, both ways are very probable, both ways should work. At least in my opinion.
