I never used a custom dsdt file, don't really know how it works, so I can't answer that. I hope someone else can enlighten us what the use is and why we would (not) need it.
See /lib/initcpio/install/dsdt: Put the custom dsdt file into /lib/initcpio/custom.dsdt and add the dsdt hook to mkinitcpio.conf. The rest is done by the kernel after booting.
As for the lvm stuff I don't think enabling lvm manually in rc.conf is that much of an effort. (nonetheless, it's on my todo to try to guess and pre-fill appropriate HOOKS and USELVM variables, but I consider this low prio. Feel free to send a patch for aif ;-)
I think this is about enabling LVM in the initramfs, this was automated in some version of the installer.
