Well the only reason /boot isn't possible in LVM is because grub can't of yet handle reading LVM volumes. As soon as it can though, there will be no need for a separate /boot.
Then we just need BIOS support to boot from LVM, and we can create the PV on /dev/sda and never care about the old partitions anymore. Everything should be in LVM for ease of management.
Oh boy! You've heard rumors that the BIOS manufacturers are going to begin supporting file-system-specific layouts? I find that hard to swallow.
