Any plans to add limitations of filesystem to the call like maximum file
size?  I know its mostly relevant for just for FAT32, but on any account
rather than trying to write 4 GiB and then file, it would be good to at
some time get a dialog at the beginning of the copy.
Adding filesystem limits can be done.  I got a shopping list of things
people wanted a while back and I've worked off of that list.  I can add
other things - that's on of the reasons I left room for expansion.
Cool, thank you for bringing this forward.

I am teaching in my Linux trainings since years that one day one will be able 
to see file creation time with stat shell command, actually mentioning ideas 
to make some xstat/statx system call. :)

Thanks,
