A customer asked today about the ability to snapshot and rollback individual files. They have an environment where users might generate lots of files, but want only a portion of them to be included in a snapshot. Moreover, typically when they recover a file, they only want one or two of them. The idea of copying them out of a fs snapshot wasn't terribly appealing to them since they tend to have pretty large files. It would be nice to just reattach that file.

Is this reasonable?
