No, they are not suited to this -- file attrs are not
delta-compressed.

The only actual requests for multi-stream file support that I've ever
heard have been for people with a few legacy MacOS files with resource
forks on them, though.  I don't think these resource forks are
actually changing, ever.  So it may not be an issue.
