 If absent, they are omitted from the dump. But since the FS is always

OK.

 I can't tell your tone of voice. Are you asking that with one
 raised eyebrow and a readied rebuttal?

Not at all.

 Or are you just asking if, in
 my opinion, I think all repos admins just dump/load? :-)

Not that either :)

 
 My advice to admins would be to dump/load if they want all their
 storage checksummed, not just the mods that occur after the upgrade to
 0.17. If they don't care that much, they can just wait until a
 dump/load is necessary (schema change, or whatever).

OK. That makes it clear. So it's a good idea to do just to get
all the checksums in there.

Thanks,
Blair
