SuSE has paid us to hire Rouslan to implement this.  Ruslan starts on Oct.
27th.  Yeah! :)  It will be designed to work hand in glove with LVM.  First we
implement growing (easy), then we do shrinking (hard, but we can throw in a
layout optimizer into the shrinker, so it will defineitely be worth it).
