Not sure how much value that would add because all the actual (repository)
data is in the blobs. The ID of each blob is its hash. The database tables
can be reconstructed from the blobs (except for the ones containing the
local configuration information).

Basically it would be weighing the risk of messing the meta data vs the
overhead of the triggers. From what I've read, rebuilding a Fossil database
is a very, very rare event.
