OK, I have also guessed what kind of warning Jernej was writing about.
And IMO it rather does not fit here:

- no concurrent writes,

- no need for size/cache optimizations.

But since there are some controversies about bool in struct and file has
already convention of bitfield I do not insist on it, you can keep it as is.
