I was hoping to have it specified as a set of mount options or defaults
controlled in the super block so that if you want to use it you can
otherwise it doesn't exist.

OK, I know Chris has described some block sharing. But I hate it.
If I copy "resume" to "resume.save", it is because I want 2 copies
for safety. I don't want the fs to reduce it to 1 copy. And
reducing the duplicates is exactly opposite to Chris's paranoid
make-multiple-copies-by-default.
Now feel free to tell me I'm an idiot (other people do) :)
I would imagine that it would be optional and at worst, a specialized
fork of btrfs that follows the mainline but adds the deduplication bits.
