-cpio(1) related questions:
-• cpio(1) accepts block size on its command line.
-  How should that be handled?
-  One obvious choice is via customization,
-  but that still feels long term.
-  What would be other ways?
-• Similarly, what about --swap-bytes and --swap-halfwords?
-• How should --link be implemented?
-• And --[no-]-absolute-filenames?
-  This might be reasonable to customize.
-• How about --dereference?
-• Does --owner=[USER][:.][GROUP] make sense for anyone besides root?
-  Similarly for --no-preserve-owner.
-• The extract functions act like --preserve-modification-time is set by 
default.
-  Is that the right thing.
-• The function of --unconditional has an implicit implementation in cpio-mode.
-  Via cpio-dired cpio-mode tries to act like dired and allow over-writing
-  after an affirmative response to a prompt.
-  From lisp code, however, it will over-write any files.
-  Is that the right way to operate?
-• How should I handle (1) contiguous data files, (2) doors (on Solaris)
-  and (3) migrated files (Cray)?
-
-Dired related questions:
-• I only use Linux and other UNIX flavored operating systems.
-  M-x dired-clean-directory "flags numerical backups."
-  What do numerical backups look like?
-• How should I interpret M-x cpio-dired-find-alternate-entry?
-  M-x cpio-dired-flag-backup-entries?
-  M-x cpio-dired-hide-all?
-  M-x cpio-dired-hide-subdir?
-• The following commands prepare things for shell commands.
-  How should I interpret them?
-  M-x cpio-dired-mark-entries-containing-regexp
-• Should renaming marked files unmark them?
-  For example, moving them to a directory.
-  They currently remain marked.
-• How should I handle undo?
-  Can you undo an entry's deletion?
-  chown, etc.?
-• Should killing the archive also kill its entry contents buffers?
