This is how I do things as well for the most part, however remember that grub is not installed onto the MBR by default so you'll want to install it into the MBR of those disks, or at the very least keep a rescue CD handy. (Or in my environment, a diskless pxe boot option.)

I have /boot on a raid1 set across four disks, and in theory, I can
put any one of them in the "boot disk" slot and boot the machine. I
haven't tried it yet though.
I also raid1 my swap partitions (in pairs, no point wasting space) so
if a disk goes down, it's never a single point of failure.
