After a bit of googling I found a Liu Bo patches which add the ability
to set the NOCOW flags to a btrfs file.[1]

However it seems that it was not present in the current (v1.42.3)
e2fsprogs suite.

There is any reason which stopped the adoption of this patch ?
Does make sense to add the chattr/lsattr capability to the btrfs tool (I
am thinking about new commands like "btrfs filesystem chattr"/"btrfs
filesystem lsattr") ?
