I fully agree. It doesn't make sense to have btrfstune as separate command. 
Its functionality should be integrate in Hidetoshi's patch: at the end both 
clear/set some flags.

I am not happy about the "btrfs property *" syntax, however the Hugo 
suggestion is right: these flags (with the seed one) are filesystem properties, 
and should be integrated in the Alexander work... However I don't know the 
status if its patches...
