well, luckily I've found this message and was able to rescue an array
with two failed disks with only a few damaged files...

but is there any possibility that this features comes into normal tree,

or does it interfere with other necessary features?

I've viewed a diff to standard 3.2.5 and doesn't see real complex

at least thanks for your work.
