debugreiserfs -p contains sensitive information?
could someone from the Reiser development / design team confirm if the
above command outputs any sensitive information? for example: part or
all of a file on the filesystem? Just what is in the output? Looking
for more details than are in the man page.

debugreiserfs -p extracts metadata from a filesystem. Most of data are
binary. Contents of files are not extracted. The only information which
is extracted and can be considered sensitive is filenames.
Having those metadata allows (usually) to reproduce reiserfsck bugs
without having whole filesystem.
