ecryptfs-simple is terribly insecure and has no chance of ever being merged. Last I looked, it was simply a setuid root wrapper around mount.ecryptfs. The mount.ecryptfs code is not written correctly for this.
If you're able, please encourage the ecryptfs-simple author to work with us (upstream) to get something more suitable implemented.
