IIUC, the plan is to add the one set of checks to xfs_repair that it currently doesn't do (doesn't check free space trees because it simply rebuilds them from scratch during the repair process), then xfs_check will be changed to be wrapper around xfs_repair. i.e. the xfs_check command is most likely not going away, just changing implementation....
