Yes, new modules can be easily added. You can see API documentation in linked github issue (will be moved to qubes-doc later). Also adding fs-based module should be quite easy, because we have also 'file' storage module, for handling file based VM images. Should be easy to build btrfs or zfs module based on it. - -- Best Regards, Marek Marczykowski-Górecki Invisible Things Lab A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
