No, unfortunately not.  It would be great to have, but it's rather hard
to do, because gmirror, just like most other GEOM classes, stores its
metadata at the end of the provider.  I've also asked Alexander Motin
about metadata formats supported by graid(8), and it looks like all
of them have the same problem.  It is possible to implement it after
this patch goes in, but it was not part of the project.
