I'm not sure what good it does anyway, and I don't know of anything on Linux that uses it. However, I also wasn't the one that added it. My original version of hfsplus did not have any way to access them. Maybe it's best to just remove it and see who complains about it. I do want to point out that I don't maintain that code anymore and don't have time to do that work myself. As far as I know, hfsplus is officially unmaintained these days. Just as a side note, hfs has the same feature. The two modules are basically the same code these days.
