Well, I didn't mention the issue of lugged versus tig, because I expect that 
any Rivendell will be lugged.

And now that you bring it up, I'll point out that a beautiful lugged bike with 
disc brakes would be pretty cool and a bit unique.

I'm not sure if the brakes would complicate fender attaching at the dropouts, 
but at the fork crown and seatstay bridge, things would be a bit more free.
