I think it would be a Great Thing if this were incorporated into -current before the feature freeze (which is coming up RSN). Even if it's not implemented in any file systems yet, it would be good to get the API fixed and out in public so that people can write their software to it. It might also be the motivating factor to actually getting a filesystem hacker to work on that side of things. -GAWollman -- Garrett A.
