I didn't think Val had any code that was anywhere near working.

As far as I know she never got around the design problem of what to do when you
have a big file where the inode is in group #1, but it needs blocks in block
groups #1, #2, #3, #4.... and what to do when you have a directory which has
directory blocks that spans multiple block groups.

She was going to design something complete new and incompatible from a format
perspective, that had bidirection pointers, but I don't think this ever got to
a working prototype stage as far as I know.  Feel free to ask her, though....
