Tested the mksquashfs command in version 4.4 (2019/08/29) on Ubuntu 20.04.
It now says: Not enough or invalid arguments in pseudo file definition "/ f 444 
root root echo"

Appending to the archive now reports "File system corrupted: filename
too long" and fails gracefully.

Listing the archive also reports the corruption, and fails earlier with
"FATAL ERROR:dir_scan: failed to read directory squashfs-root"

** Changed in: squashfs-tools (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Fix Released
