I would opt for 4 or 5, and would be in full support of 5. I do not
think that it can (or should) be dropped from the kernel, because we
don't want to cut off existing users, and it can still be a useful
filesystem for specific cases.
Would option 5 prevent people from doing fresh installs with existing btrfs file systems from tying them in during the install process?
If so, I think 4 is the better option.
Thanks,
