Shouldn't you in general just recreate the LV with the same amount of 
extents and then perform a DD?

I realize an atomic move operation for an LV could conceptually be nice 
but apart from the mental effort required to do this recreation 
manually, there is not much practically in the way of doing it yourself.

In the end, it would be nothing more than a shell script doing an 
LVCREATE, DD, and LVREMOVE?

Regards.
