450	checker / repair agent	warner		"Our old roadmap.txt had ""Checker/Repairer steps 1.5/2/3"" as ""maintain file manifest, centralized chekcer/repair-agent, nodes also check their own files"".

The idea was that, as a first step, nodes should simply keep track of their ""manifest"": a list of all the files that they wanted to keep alive. Files that cease to be on this list should be deleted (see #449).

Once we have this list, we can use it to decide what files we want to check/verify/repair. Passing the list to a centralized agent would offload the work from the clients (also allowing them to go offline for extended periods of time). This interacts strongly with #119 (lease expiration / deletion / filechecking / quotas).

We could have a central agent check up on files, or have the client node do it, or both.
