My 4-years-old DFI has no problem with encrypted intel ssd also and booting without problem.
I think we can't call this "new features" in this perspective.
Anyway that's something you can add to your bug list. As opposite to "ATA security extension" which is an optional feature indeed this one is a bug. Mobo should not behave like this (endless reboot loop) even when it doesn't support ATA password (my old DFI doesn't either).
