You can play games with quotas anyway, because you are alowd to make
hard links to files you don't own. I was considering writing some code
to restrict the ability to make hardlinks to files to root and the file's
owner. I guess it could either be a global sysctl or a per filesystem
mount option.

Would there be any interest in this it I put it together? Should it be
a mount option or a sysctl? Would anyone consider commiting it if I did
write it?
