I've only had to use restore once and hopefully won't be using it again in the near future, but having it restore the metadata and symlinks as well would surely have made the experience easier. There's a lot of people going to benefit from these patches over time as btrfs gains usage and the inevitable breakage happens to some of those filesystems. =:^/ -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
