--------------------------------------
+1. This seems like a very useful feature for admins.

> Right now a quota can only be set on disk space or file name space if the
> quota is greater than the current amount in use by the directory on which the
> quota is being set. It should be possible to set a quota less than the
> current amount used. The expected result is that no more files will be
> creatable in that directory until files are removed.
