100% agreed. I can imagine that a lot of users will find their requirement
of space managing with project quota. In this sense, general project quota
is just like extended attribute comparing to internal attribute. For unknown
use case in the future, I' d suggest to keep everything flexible. We don't
really want to hear from customers that project quota looks attractive, but
needs to be hacked to be usable for their usage.
