Actually, I think Andreas's librados stuff he's working on may be the 
right path... it'll expose general information about object -> pg -> 
osd mappings.  Then a simple script could take the ino + file size, turn 
it into object names, and use that.

In any case, I don't mind nuking this and waiting for a complaint before 
investing in replacing that bit of functionality since it's such a small 
thing...
