One of your worries, being forced to divulge the password is also
covered.

You can have a hidden encrypted volume within another encryptedvolume, which
requires a separate password to unlock. If force to "give up" a
password, you give the password for the outer encrypted volume. There
is no way to determine if an inner encrypted volume even exists, thus
giving you plausible denial ability....
