In testing block group removal it's sometimes handy to be able to create

Gave this a try and it works as advertised, though I noticed that the
redundancy level is ignored, e.g. adding a single metadata chunk will
add a new "single" chunk even when the metadata level is dup.
Doing a balance -mconvert dup,soft fixes that right up, but it's IMHO
unexpected. Can you put a cherry on top and create the new chunk according
to its dup level?

thanks :)
