I see this as a "faster than the bear" issue.  We don't need to be the
biggest, strongest, fastest, we just need to be slightly better than
the alternatives, which in this case in Windows.  If all we need is a
simple startup script or cronjob (or both) which warns the user when
the disks is below some level of free space, then that is probably
easier and faster to implement than redoing our entire cloning process
to handle multiple partitions, implement quotas, or do some other
super-fancy tricks common in high-availability data centers.  But then
I like KISS.
