Regrettably i see few chances to get an interpreter for the extra info into Linux or other kernels. So for restoring ACL, xattr, or hard link relations, one will have to use commands -osirrox "on" and -extract. This also helps to work around kernel shortcommings on Solaris and the BSDs.
This would be a really interesting piece of work and if I wasn't already crazy busy (full time job, young daughter, part time PhD, mostly ignored Debian responsibilities, proofreading a book…) I'd jump on it. But if you are prepared to mail me privately some further technical details, I might think about scheduling it once I've got a few other things done. It's been too long since my last kernel contribution (which was trivial anyway)
Have a nice day :)
