Ahhh. Yes, I do recall that too. I think because I was as fixed on the
"object->filename" resolution that OP was looking for, I didn't think
the inode xattr would be terribly useful to him, but indeed, the stripe
index could be helpful in ordering objects in striped files.
Thanx for the reminder Andreas.
