Ah, yes! Sorry, I'd forgotten that those existed as well.
I never really saw a deep potential for those -- the problem being that you cannot open the outer drive for writing without providing the password which enables the inner drive's reading, which means that you're constantly leaking that information whenever you're using the outer drive (which ideally would be relatively frequent, so as to justify that it's not masking a hidden drive. So I'd just totally forgotten that TrueCrypt could do that. My mistake.
