IMHO it would be too complicated to try to fit everything into the  
filesystem resource.

It would be simpler (famous last words) to have three resources like:
  filesystem
  raid
  volume

and combine them with definitions to achieve the complete goal (for  
example a xfs filesystem on top of an lvm2 volume, on top of a raid1  
array)
