I have, long ago, and frankly it sounds like GEOM with a bunch of RAID classes. We already have GEOM, and the RAID classes are practically trivial to implement once you have GEOM. Considering that RF is unusable in -CURRENT (any attempt to use it causes a panic) and nobody is working on it or has been in a long time, the least you could do is disconnect it from the build.
