Interesting. I never knew that.
But the dirty bit could/should be cleared whenever the FS is in a
consistent state. Like: after a sync AND no files are open. Maybe having
a process with a working directory on the FS counts as having a file
open; maybe not.

I imagine that that would require cooperation of too many actors (each
thinking they are the star of the show). I could experiment but how could
I test all the cases>
My initial position was: packagekit should not need to access the ESP
except to apply updates. But packagekit accesses the ESP when it
starts up.
