Btw, is there a way to replace a drive without failing one? In RAID-5, a common issue is to have a failed drive and then find bad sectors on another. In this setting (and possibly others), it'd be good to have md replace the drive while still active (like what can be done in ZFS).

That is what "want_replacement" does. You need 2.6.33 or later however.
