I recall their being a thread here a number of months back regarding
data-deduplication support for bttfs.

Did anyone end up picking that up and giving a go at it?  Block level
data dedup would be *awesome* in a Linux filesystem.  It does wonders
for storing virtual machines w/ NetApp and WAFL, and even ZFS doesn't
have this feature yet (although I've read discussions on them looking
to add it).

There are some patches to do in QEMU's cow format for KVM. That's
user level only.

And thus, doesn't work for sharing between different images, especially at runtime. I'd really, really [any number of reallies], really like to see btrfs deduplication.
