I see your thinking.... presumably a performance tuning thought?
Overall, the two things are fairly separate, apart from the fact that we
do currently log whole data blocks straight to the log. Usually just
one, but possibly 2 or three. So I have a feeling that things would
become less efficient if you did this, not more.
But its a good line of thought and I'll have a look at that.
