The concept is really tempting. RAID is good, and not asking the user
for information that the system can find out for itself is good too.

In the unlikely event that the RAID stride were to change, I think the
autodetect-each-time method would be superior to the store-in-superblock
method. Doubly so if the code to detect MD and LVM stride is lean and
clean.

true, but in some cases (hardware raid, SAN, etc) there is no easy way
to learn that other than asking user.

thanks, Alex
