I initially tried 3.16.4-9, with 3.16.3.1-1 I get the same behaviour. However (!) I booted the old 3.11.10 kernel and that worked,

Could you try disabling graphic in grub (as long as you can boot you can do it using yast) and boot in text mode?

Bingo! Text mode does the trick, I get a text-only message to enter my passphrase and boot succeeds. Thanks a lot for your help!

I guess there's a bug to file here, but I'm not sure against what ... any hints?

I tentatively suggest that if previous kernel works under the same conditions this is kernel issue. I remember patch for grub posted on grub-devel recently that disables graphic handover (thus forcing kernel to start in text mode), but it looks more like a workaround.
