Hi Michal,

Kristal Pollack did a paper on distributed quotas that represents one 
possible approach for enforcement in the case where clients are untrusted:

There is also the recursive accounting in the the MDS that in theory could 
facilitate subtree quotas.  It already implements the accounting half of 
the problem, but the implementation of enforcement would be tricky.  See
