------------------------------
Thanks Charles. Actually I also prefer to have separate API "list xattrs".

> From the attr(5) manpage:
> {noformat}
> Users with search access to a file or directory may retrieve a list of
> attribute names defined for that file or directory.
> {noformat}
> This is like doing {{getfattr}} without the {{-d}} flag, which we currently
> don't support.
