Good to see more opinions on the this topic.
Well, I'm not positive the change to root=UUID=multipath- (done via ROOT=) would be well accepted by boot userspace, and would imagine some better can be done. (comment #28)

I see you chased some multipath stuff on the bug trail you mentioned.
In case your mind has been nurturing more ideas, it would be cool to ideate on the topic/implementation :)
