After adding the nofail option to the two ESPs and to the two swap partitions in /etc/fstab (see https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/release-notes/ch-information.en.html#systemd-auto-mounts-incompat ), the system is able to boot with either drive disconnected, as long as I use the workaround [1] for the mdadm bug. When I have time, I'll try to see what can be done in package grub-efi-amd64 (and possibly other packages) in order to automate this setup... Any help will be much appreciated, of course.
