Certainly! On my media server I have some small ancillary files that are prone to changing (nfo, tbn, thumbs.db, etc). Since this is a media server I really don't care about any files on this box under a certain size and since they tend to change I'd like to exclude all of them from the parity calculations. It's not a deal breaker for sure since I can exclude by extension but in my mind it would be another nice feature to have.
Indeed interesting idea.
On a media server (esp. with video), small files = metadata (ok except maybe subtitles). In any case people fear the loss of their larger data in such cases.
(not my kind of thing, but the idea is indeed interesting and would be useful to many)
I meant to post this ^^^ days ago, but forgot about it. Glad Brahim also finds it interesting.
