Gluster users - Jun 2016 - replicate and bricks order

If I remember properly, the brick order when creating a replicated
volume is important, as we have to write bricks in order to preserve
redudancy

Any plans to fix this allowing a 'random' order like ceph? In ceph
there is no need to create volums by setting bricks in proper order.

On large clusters, this could be very tricky.

In large clusters you're deploying them using automation tools. It's not
that hard. That being said, the disperse translator can manage 
redundancy over a non-replicated volume which would give you that feature.
