I guess I'm pretty nervous about offering actual thin provisioned
storage to "average" Fedora users. I'm having nightmares about the
"bug"
reports already, just based on the likelihood of most users misunderstanding
the feature and it's requirements & expected behavior…
So possibly the installer should be conservative about how thin the provisioning is;
otherwise I'm imagining inadequately provisioned thinp LV, while also using the
rollback feature [1].
