After reviewing all options, this indeed seems to be the best one in my case.But it still doesn't let you move filesystems that aren't on LVM in to LVM. I don't understand why you keep thinking that LVM lets you do this. My very first reply to you pointed out this would be an issue for you!
Thank you, and I am sorry I did not make it clear that I had dropped that idea. I'll do what was suggested here: create a mirrored LV on the new drives, use R Sync to copy my data from my old RAID-1 system to the LV, create new physical volumes on the old drives (destroying the RAID), and extend the volume group and the logical volume.
