I understand that persistence of filenames provides recoverability that users might like but I feel like that may break sooner or later. For example, if we get directory shrinking patches[1] merged in or if we redesign the directory htree using generic btrees (which will hopefully support shrinking), this kind of recovery will become very hard. Also, I was wondering if persistence of file names was by design? or it was there due to the way we implemented directories?
