In fact, I think the right question is "Will Qubes 4 be compatible with btrfs root
if vm storage is expected to reside on a LVM thin pool?"
This is a good question. The new storage handling is flexible enough to
allow writing a module to handle btrfs even better than in Qubes 3.x.
But it is unlikely that we'll manage to write such module for 4.0. If
someone would contribute such module, then yes - it will be supported.
Otherwise, probably somehow around 4.1 or later.

You realize that some of us have been happily using btrfs features with
Qubes in a way that produces better work flows?
If ITL desires a modular storage layer, wouldn't the best approach be to
offer a general image file module *first* to emulate the current
architecture? That way, people can continue to have the same storage
choices and backup procedures they already do.
