--- Comment #18 from Alexander Holler <holler@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> ---
And if the encrypted content isn't really deleted, what happens if the key has
gone away before it was "flushed" (whatever that means)? Which doesn't sound
that unlikely after we've learned about the resources governments are using to
get their hands on such stuff. So one could say one problem was exchanged
against another, if the storage isn't really erased (which leads to original
problem).

Anyway, maybe the easy way I've used to fix fat in a few hours works for extN
too. No idea if and when I will try or even post patches, as I personally don't
have any problem with all that and are happily able to secure my own stuff
according to most of my needs (hopefully). So I'll now stop arguing (likely to
your pleasure) ;)
