If a lowly user's vote counts for anything, I'd vote for the complete
removal of ataraid support. We have gstripe, gmirror, graid3, graid5, and
zfs (and gvinum for the masochistics). :) We don't need to support any of
the crappy pseudo-raid "hardware" out there. ataraid(4) has served it's
purpose, tiding us over until GEOM RAID facilities were in place. Now it's
time for it to be retired.

gstripe can't create a bootable striped set; ataraid can.
