Yay!  Thanks for looking into this, and sorry I didn't respond sooner.

I know the doc has a "use case" section, but I suppose I am not sure
that I understand the use case yet.  Is this about improving the
filter syntax to handle features like directory listing?  Or is this
about being able to make better use of deltas in a partial clone, to
decrease bandwidth consumption and overhead that is proportional to
size?

Thanks,
Jonathan
