We are evaluating this as we needed had to support few cases where companies
have Large NFS exports, and they want to shift to GlusterFS. As NFS doesn't
support xattrs, we are thinking of getting xattr support as a translator.
That way, we can support afr/stripe (or any other future translators) which
need xattr, on all the backend filesystems.

But I should admit thats not anytime within another month. Will put it up on
Roadmap once we get an idea, and evaluate it properly.
