Didn't you have concerns about storing the context in the object struct?
I can't quite judge how much of an issue this can be for fsck and such.
I don't want to increase the memory footprint unnecessarily, of course.

Other than that, the mechanism was still up for discussion (separate
"show" attribute or a config) given that the default behavior for
showing blobs is not to change.
