I'm fine with that approach for forcealign && reflink (no mounting).

As for forcealign && rtextsize > 1 it seems to be working for me. That 
is with not too many changes, so maybe we can go with this support 
initially. Personally I'd rather not, as testing may be spread too thin. 
Anyway, I'll send the patches early next week and we can make the 
judgement then.
