I think RR DNS is the only viable solution under these circumstances.
If you can cope with the fact that failovers won't be seamless, I
don't think there's anything wrong with that though.

With this proxy setup you describe, what would happen if HAProxy or
Dovecot Proxy were to fail?
I think there is no problem with many moving parts, as long as
there is a backup plan in case something goes awry. My goal is
slightly different, as I want to have HA available across
datacenters without using BGP or having control over the IP space
(so, no anycast). Just a simple way to get the clients redirected
to the other Dovecot server when I lose an entire datacenter
network for whatever reason.
you dont need DNS RR for that. just plain DNS entries with a very short
TTL.
