I know.
p.e.
Start with 1 disk with 2 GB and 1 disk with 4 GByte
Fill it with 2 Gbyte data, each disk gets 1 GByte.
Add a disk with 10 GByte, run "balance": each disk gets about 700 MByte.
That has nothing to do with "resize".

That's no good example, too.
btrfs allows to bundle several

1) add the new device
2) balance (may be it's not necessary)
3) run "remove" for the "individual" device
4) remove it
5) balance
Viele Gruesse!

No - it's a filesystem operation.
p.e.
You start with a sys
Currently the resize command is under filesystem, and takes a path to the
mounted filesystem. This seems wrong to me. Shouldn't it be under device, and
take a path to a device to resize? Otherwise, how can a resize operation when
you have multiple devices make any sense?
