It would actually be much better ti have incremental assembly for
multipath and LVM. This already exists for mdadm (although may be
disabled by distribution).

I wonder if multipathd already can accept udev events and reconfigure
itself. At least, I remember messages in log every time new device
comes. In this case it would be enough to just start it early and let
it configure itself.

I do not think it is possible for LVM right now.
