It took me less than 3 minutes total to implement the explicit mount routine on both servers, and unless someone can give me either a much better solution or a solid reason I should not take this approach
The only problem I can see is that your bitmap is not on a RAID device so if the disc goes you lose the bitmap. I guess you're accepting the risk of downtime anyway because your filesystem root is on a non-RAID device, but while you can (as I think you've said before) replace the boot disc quickly, you're exposing yourself to a long, slow resync which will increase your downtime by perhaps days...
