(i.e integrate the functionality of vgscan / vgchange -ay,-an into the kernel) If lvm really introduces as negligible an overhead as it is touted to, there really seems to be no reason to go with 'physical' partitions anymore and it should go the way of the dodo. I can see a future where everyone installs their Linux distros on logical volumes.
