Yah, yah ;)
The key here is that I plan to change r0 for FSX
in the future while there is no intent to do so for
FSFS. And not storing the directory rep brought
the code back to using plain strings plus produces
a smaller and simpler r0.

My main argument in the past has been to keep
the template as it has always been and to use it
as a tiny format 1 splinter even in new repositories.
I remember a few instances where new code would
fail for r0 specifically because old format quirks.
Now Stefan kind of suggested to add regression
tests for r0 - which would be an obvious thing to do.
With those in place, we can still guarantee to write
old-style r0 content. IOW, I'll give it a try.
