If I'm understanding correctly, that one downside (requiring all checkouts to have all files be direct if any filesystems require it) seems to be a fairly major limitation, no? Changing the concept of locked/unlocked files from being a local, per-repo concern to a global one seems like quite a major change.
For instance, would mean that any public repo using git annex for distributing a set of data files would either have to have all files be unlocked, or else no one would be able clone onto a FAT32-formatted external hdd?
FWIW, the particular use case I'm concerned about personally is having my annexes on my android device.
