FWIW, I was OK with the idea of adding something similar to the given
patch to find out whether we had a problem or not. With sufficient
evidence that lost files are a big problem, I'd be in favor of a
mechanism of the kind proposed in Heikki's latest messages. The
disconnect for me at the moment is that there's no evidence to justify
that amount of effort/risk. A startup-time patch would have provided
that evidence, or else have proven that it's not worth spending more
time on.
