Another disadvantage of the current approach is that it is difficult
to perform queries such as:
"How many copies of file xyz do I have?"
"Return the latest version of file xyz across the following hosts?"
(and infinite variations and extensions of the above)

Does this really come up much?

In one of my many roles as a backup administrator, the answer is - yes, it comes up a lot.
