The other thing which we should consider is that chunkfs really
requires a 64-bit inode number space, which means either we only allow

I'd think it needs a "chunk space" number and a 32 bit local inode
number ;) (same for blocks)
For inodes, yes, either 64-bit inode or some field for the chunk id in
which the inode is. But for block numbers, you don't. Because individual
chunks manage part of the whole file system in an independent way. They
have their block bitmaps starting at an offset. Inode bitmaps, however,
remains same.
