the quota fix was included in the next (test) release so default quota will work again ...
the Quota Hash Abstraction is neither a (big) performance gain nor a feature bonus for the end user ... it is more an enhancement to the code itself, allowing to have more than one quota hash for arbitrary purposes ...
I doubt, that this code will ever make it into mainline without another 'good' reason to use it, but maybe the --bind mount quota stuff would be such a reason, if the interest for such things will eventually grow ...
