If the subject was not to find people to implement the Wish List, but to increase the Wish List itself, I would have added:

- an official interface to get the disk/sector numbers from the block number of a filesystem (the later got by FIBMAP/FIEMAP).
Sometimes it is easy to get (simple partition table) but other times nearly impossible (multi-disk RAID with LVM on top).
