Yeah, some mistakes were made when handling the root size, some other issues with openQA when trying to fix it, Richard Brown had fun couple of weeks with that stuff, but it was all worth the effort. We didn't change much with how aggressively everything is snapshotted, because in practice, since most desktop updates are done on live systems (obviously excluding ro filesystems with transactional/atomic updates), everything can go wrong, both pre and post the transaction, so every snapshot might be the one you need > Agreed.

Any desktop integration issues that stand out in > particular? There is no gui for basically anything btrfs related anywhere, since SUSE has had close to 0 interest in desktop for around 10 years. Since I heard there is nobody maintaining gnome-disk-utility, I might have some motivation to help out with it, since I am a huge fan of it, so we will see how much time I have over the coming weeks to implement things there. We wouldn't want it to die like banshee, would we?
