I'd really stay away from doing anything RAID related with the ESP. We really shouldn't have the same partition multiple times with the same uuid and stuff. That is a call for trouble. This is a really awful idea. Really, things like the pre-kernel boot logic should be kept simple, and what you are suggesting there is just frickin' crazy.
