Maybe the FAQ should even include a question that lists what _is_
stored in the LUKS header, with a note to the effect of "this is all
there is", and a link to the respective on-disk format specification.

I imagine that a summarized list that gives, for each of LUKS 1 and
LUKS 2, what is stored globally and per key slot, and for each whether
it's encrypted or unencrypted, would be quite informative.

Yes, that should all be in the detailed on-disk format specification,
but a summary would make the information much more accessible.
