Thanks for confirming :-). 
For those following along and also interested, I created the ticket here:
https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/43337
Our use case (probably applicable to many clusters - also described there) is 
"cleanup", i.e. find data not read since months
which might be a good candidate for deletion (or maybe, moving to a "colder" 
place). 

Cheers and thanks,
        Oliver
