Just having a discussion with Bela about this.
I guess having grouping on GridFS' content would make sense.
e.g. put all chunks on the same node
Is this doable?
Afaiu, we would need to have some sort of similarity function for content's
metadata?

Why do you chunk at all if you want them stored together?
I only use chunking if I can't avoid it, to spread large files.

That's what's GridFS all about -- store very large files.
Hence chunking.
So you're saying we should

Or that doesn't make sense?

It doesn't make sense. :)
The reason grid file systems exist is to distribute the file around the
cluster.
(both for performance so the network interface of a single server isn't
a bottleneck,
and for disk space so the available space on a single server isn't a
bottlenect)
If you don't want
