Depends on how you patch dracut. ;-)
You can also add a "try_roots=/dev/diskX;/dev/diskY"...

That comes back around to my earlier email:

I'm not a fan of this idea. What downside is there to implementing it in the kernel? It trickles down in a consistent way and bonus points for supporting systems that don't use an initramfs.
