To make this trivial to do for users, I think that it would be really

Good idea? Bad idea?
So the "resize" is on the filesystem, not the volume ? The "grow" part
is probably easy. Unfortunately, the "shrink" may not be easy for some
of the filesystems:

Who wants to make their fs smaller anyway?  ;)
