Probably too late to ask this question now anyway, but does ceph have
a particular good reason to expose those virt xattr in listxattr?

I means its not xattrs that copy tools should try to copy and tools
should know about them and can try to getxattr without the need
to see them in listxattr.

I noticed this is the behavior of cifs w.r.t cifs. and smb3. virt xattr.

Thanks,
