Sounds good, but I have yet another feature request which is even more
interesting in my opinion.
If you ever used snapper you probably already found yourself in the
poisition when you want to free some space and you actually can't, because
the files you want to delete are already present in countless snapshots.
Such a way you will have to delete the unwanted files from every snapshot,
which is tedious task, even more difficult if you moved/renamed these
files. What I actually do is exploiting duperemove's hashfile to grep for
the checksum and obtain all the paths. Then I will have to switch the
snapshots to rw, manually delete each file and finally switch them back to
ro. A tool which automates these task would be awesome.
