I also agree with this.

Having a special `btrfs rm -rf` (as is implemented now by 
systemd/src/shared/btrfs-util.c)
copied into various projects is painful.  There are a *lot* of tools that
do packages in chroots that would all need to be taught this.

I'll look at the seccomp approach, but the amount of pain versus gain
here seems quite disproportionate right now.

(OTOH, I want to use seccomp for RPM things in general, of which
 this is just one)
