No, of course not.

It would be painful to have to put back the '--enable-fast-restart and
--enable-bitmap-later' code if you removed them, probably dangerous. My
plea is to keep them in as an alternative to the demand-attach
file-server: with mandatory salvaging the non-demand-attach case is
seriously impaired, hence disabling it is no real alternative.

With the ambitious schedule for new releases I see this happening very
quickly. I'd like to avoid having to stop at a particular release next
year because of a functionality that we manage to live without, and miss
others that we're interested in.

I agree with Rainer on this.

At the same time, I'd be happy to start doing more testing of the various DAFS features, although I'm not quite sure what version I should be using for testing, nor am I completely sure how to actually migrate an existing file server to use DAFS or if there is a reverse path to downgrade if I encounter problems.
