Is this ready for testing somewhere? initramfs+mdadm.conf is operator-error bait, proper auto-assemble that does away with the requirement of an up-to-date mdadm.conf inside the initrd would help a great deal, there. It will need something like LVM has to blacklist/whitelist what device classes it will scan for superblocks though, or it will eventually cause a lot of trouble. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
