I'd see it the other way: Having a working "fetch missing pristines" implementation is a precondition (and not a side-effect) of things like "optional pristines" and "shared pristine storage".

It is needed to return whatever working copy into the "old" self-contained state. If that functionality is not provided from the beginning, existing users will be _very_ alienated.

Best regards
