If you cannot wait for Arjan or anybody else to write an ataraid setup tool, you can go with dmsetup and choose any name you want (see the dmsetup man page). The only restriction is that dmsetup creates device under /dev/mapper, you can though use symlinks to it like LVM2 does if you need it under /dev/ataraid or something (in your initscript). If you don't have a better idea you can just give it the same name as before.
