Thanks for the pointer, I was unaware of that tool. Indeed for local-only repositories, annex-to-annex avoids these troubles altogether. I suppose that with remotes, running annex-to-annex on all of them in a coordinated fashion does too.
IIUC, the annex-to-annex-dropunused tool does similar cleanup to this, provided annex-to-annex was used in the first place. It seems not to mark these files as dead, so a `git annex fsck --all` will from thereon fail.
