Wait, I'm not following the last few steps you suggest. Comments inline:

something like http://www.dev-eth0.de/creating-raidz-with-missing-device/
Don't I need to copy the data back from the temporary pool to the new raidz
pool at this point?
I'm not understanding the process beyond this point, can you clarify please?
- destroy the temporary pool
So this leaves the data intact on the disk?
- replace the fake device with now-free disk
So this replicates the data on the previously-free disk across the raidz pool?
What's the point of the following export/import steps? Renaming? Why can't I
just give the old pool name to the raidz pool when I create it?
- export the new pool
- import the new pool and rename it in the process: "zpool import
temp_pool_name old_pool_name"
Thanks!

In the end I
want the three-disk raidz to have the same name (and mount point) as the
original zpool. There must be an easy way to do this.
Nope.
