So yes, go for the whole device approach. I would make sure the

Could I have both? That is, add the whole device to the array, yet have
a protective
partition table?
I like the idea of having a protective partition table, similar to the
EE type that protects GPT
partitions from non-GPT aware partitioning software or OS's.
It looks like the 1.2 superblock allows just that, as it starts 4k past
the start.
So, would it be wise to add the whole device to an array, using 1.2
metadata,
with a fake partition table (type DA) ?
Thanks,
