... and it's not the mdraid, but entirely different kernel subsystem.
Last time I've checked it, they did not even implemented incremental
RAID assembly in LVM, meaning that you won't be able to use such array
if a single drive from LVM-based RAID will fail.
They've solved this problem in mdraid like 15 years ago.

But staying on-topic, I'm too very interested to hear about alternative
interfaces to mdraid, which do not involve mdadm. libblockdev2 does not
count, it's merely a wrapper.
