Yes, that's right. I don't know any solution for that. We would have to 
walk the filesystems and find all 'stale' xattrs with such a uid. This 
is independent of whether the uid is encoded on the name side, as in 
this patch, or on the value side, as in Serge's original proposal. And 
uids of a mapped container root user don't necessarily have to have an 
account on the host so that an account deletion could trigger that.
