It seems more usable for this behaviour to be unconditional rather than an option: why would you not want to attempt to ensure that a file is healthy (per #614) on a repair or upload?

    initial v4  
    1 In [http://allmydata.org/pipermail/tahoe-dev/2009-May/001729.html this mailing list message], Humberto Ortiz-Zuazaga asks how to rebalance the shares of a file.  To close this ticket add a "rebalance" option (so, a checkbox in the WUI or a {{{--rebalance}}} flag in the CLI) that uploads new shares to any server that it thinks ought to have a share.
