Absolutely!

Maybe we could start brainstorming ideas to cover now, on the list? I
honestly know XFS so little (I've read code here and there, but I don't
know much about the high level structure) that I wouldn't know where to
start.

Filesystems are such a huge world of "oh, that would've made my life so
much easier if I'd had that idea at the right time..."
