I have experimented with this rather extensively and have operationally
decided not to use ggated in combination with gmirror --- it doesn't appear
to work as well as one might expect.

Some improvements were made to ggated awhile ago --- to improve error
recovery.  It should have helped, but didn't.

I'm somewhat vaguely wondering if zfs with one local and one ggated disk
will work well.
