+debian mdadm TODO list
+======================
+
+- version-1 is a nightmare. E.g. on partitionable arrays, with / on
+  /dev/md_d0p3, mdadm -Es ignores /dev/md_d0 and just uses the name, so
+  /dev/md/<arrayname>.
+- figure out something about device names.
+- (better) udev integration
+
+- check whether mdadm.conf and system are consistent during initramfs creation
+  and fail otherwise (#381303).
+- add code to compare existing and expected configuration, after standardising
+  the files. In most cases, we'll have to answer DUNNO as to whether the
+  existing configuration file is okay, but I guess in some cases we can
+  determine that the configuration is okay. A conservative approach would be
+  beneficial to the user. Not sure if it's worth the effort though.
+- one nice^W important thing would be to check device names and UUIDs at least.
+
+- verify operation without udev
+  - udev removed before mdadm installed
+  - udev removed after mdadm installed
+
+- more granular handling of init.d starts/stops, don't force all arrays to be
+  started.
+- let user specify when to start/stop which array (#398310).
+- also only stop those array we started; this can be easily done with
+  sentinels in $STATEDIR
+
+- manage DAEMON_OPTIONS with debconf
