I don't use raid setups but I plan to do some time soon and I
completely agree with you - your suggestions would be great. Maybe
this is worth staring a separate thread and lobing for it? ;)

I would like also to see this; especially user switcher which caused
me a lot of data and time loss! Really great idea but buggy as hell!
And then when I see they removed beagle because it was "buggy" but
work for me on lots of systems (7 desktops) I tried flawlessly - and
then fedora includes this totally new and buggy feature :(
