I've just compiled some thoughts and ideas into:
https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Project_ideas#Per-object_default_mount-options_.2F_btrfs-properties_.2F_chattr.281.29_attributes_and_reasonable_userland_defaults

As usual, this is mostly from my admin/end-user side, i.e. what I could
imagine would ease in the maintenance of large/complex (in terms of
subvols, nesting, snapshots) btrfs filesystems...

And of course, any developer or more expert user than me is happily
invited to comment/remove any (possibly stupid) ideas of mine therein,
or summon the inquisition for my heresy ;)


Cheers,
Chris.
