Great - thanks for taking the initiative with that.
However:
All previous versions of mdadm were unable to remove disconnected or dead
devices from md arrays.
This is not corrrect. You can removed disconnected devices with:
mdadm /dev/mdx --fail detached --remove detached
will fail, then remove, all component devices on /dev/mdx which
have been detached from the system.
This has been possible since about 2.6.2.
