The biggest gotcha I can see is that you're trying to replicate data
in a 'bottom up' fashion using this whereas RAID solutions expect to
work 'top down'.
How do you get the RAID system to recognise changes in the netwrok
block device, other than by forcing the local device to resilver?
AFAICT, that has to be a very manual process. Wouldn't it be just as
easy to push-mirror off the master server in usersapce using something
like rsync?
