Or you could look at secure backup as an alternative to MML...

if your stategy is to backup directly to tape then *RMAN* must integrate via the mml. If it's to backup to disk and then tape, then *you* need to co-ordinate the rman policy with the tape backup policy. if its to backup to disk only then its probably not an issue.
