Thanks a lot for sharing very valuable information. Considering that I want to return to Linux asap, it seems it's better not to gamble and install using ext4+lvm2+raid-1 and then, when btrfs becomes more stable, detach one disk from ext4 raid-1 array, format as btrfs, move the OS & data to it, dismantle array and add 2nd disk to the btrfs raid-1.
