Would be also nice to allow a file to belong to more than one project.

Let say I want to have

/projects/ with 10GB quota
and
/projects/projectA/ with 1GB quota
/projects/projectB/ with 2GB quota
and so on that's still limited by /projects/ 10GB quota limit.

(and can't use user/group quota for that since the files belong to various 
users/groups)
