The RAID 1/10 problem where df reports free space as the size of the volume, not the actual amount of stuff that can be stored on the volume? Or is there another case? It does seem to be a problem that df works this way with btrfs. It's one thing for 'btrfs df' to do it's own thing, but for df to do this doesn't seem like a good idea.
