Mark (our support engineer) was kind enough to add our service issue to this. However, to make our request clear, we do NOT want to recommission. When a drive is "replaced" (BOSS, RAID-1 virtual disk rebuilt) we want any "serial number" or UUID check to simply be skipped. This will become more important moving forward (composable systems, where disks are "attached" just for a single deployment and generally moved to another system upon release. No doubt there exist some group of users who wish to require the absolute same disk each time, but we have no such requirement nor do we ever foresee that as being helpful.

For background see case 00294206 "Disk Serial Number Check Considered Harmful"
