The file format is one big difference. The other is that having the
quota code in the filesystem allows much nicer integration with the
transaction code. Anyway, my next step is to support both the
current "VFS" and the "XFS" quota interface independent of the
underlying implementation, at least for the runtime calls. The
quota on/off bits are a bit too different, but it might be a good
idea to handle those everywhere primarily via mount options and
deprecate most of the old calls, but keep supporting them for a long
time. After that I plan to look a bit more in the quota implementation
and look for sharing opportunities, but it might take a while until I
get to that.
