I'm beginning to thing the problem is simply that the EFI System
Partition really does need to be a real partition, and not a logical
volume or part of a raid.  It is not an issue with raid and fat32, it is
just that the ESP (/boot/efi) needs to be reached from the EFI firmware,
which doesn't know about anything except real GPT partitions.  I'd
really love to find otherwise, but that seems to be the conclusion of
all my searching.  Grub can boot to a kernel and initramfs on a logical
or raid volume, but it seems that grubx64.efi (for example) needs to be
on a physical partition.
