... And one more thing: as far as I know, Novell knows the notion of
"purge on delete" flag, and it's extremely useful in situation when you
don't want your data to stay indefinitely long in unused disk blocks...
And it doesn't seem to require too many changes in FS code to implement
(well, I can hear you saying: then go and do it! but FS is still black
magic to me :-).
