Does this require a format bump (and another dump/load)? Or do you

This is no format change; the beauty of format 7 is
that we can learn and tweak strategies as we go without
a format bump.  OTOH, there is not much potential for
further improvement right now.  FSFS is limited by its
fixed sharing scheme.

I have no *plans* for unpack/repack but the thought
has occurred to me.  It should not be hard to do as
an offline operation, maybe alongside a reshard command.
If you want to write an 'svnadmin unpack', I'd support
you in that effort.
Interesting :-). I've put it on my radar, but not sure if I'll ever
get to it. Life keeps getting in the way ;-).

Would be a nice bite-sized task though ... if someone else wants to
have a go, feel free. Maybe it's something to put on the
http://subversion.apache.org/ideas.html page?

Good idea. Done in r1727706.
