Okay, so, on Debian jessie then, it is expected that md arrays on
devices that are only present after the initramfs is done working
will not be automatically (incrementally) started?

I saw Yann mentioned that in stretch the GOTO="md_inc_end" has been
removed again. Does that mean that incremental assembly on device
change is expected to work again in stretch (I have not tested it,
and most likely will not have time to do so with this hardware).

Thanks,
Andy
