Hmm, would raid10,n2, or raid10,f2 then have these flaws too?
 

I do not know.
I am, however, about to do some testing to find out.
Our company routinely was using RAID1 on systems, until we discovered this.
With no ability to boot from RAID5 and similar this leaves us in a bit 
of a bind.

As raid10,n2 is data wise equivalent to RAID1, then grub/lilo should be
able to boot from raid10,n2. 

raid10,n2 should have better performance than RAID10, but raid10,f2

I meant: raid10,n2 should have better performance than RAID1
