Interesting. But I'm not sure I want to give up the fixed-length softref
records as I imagine it makes the lookup and processing _much_ faster.

The token (really a namespace identifier) could be defined as a string with a fixed, probably small, maximum size. Or, better IMO, it could be an integer with a bunch of enumerated values for internal git uses and a range reserved for unofficial / experimental use. I agree that fixed-length records seem like a win here, assuming this is the general storage layout we end up with when all is said and done.
