Yeah the last time I had a btrfs volume die, there were a few troubleshooting/recovery steps on the wiki which I dutifully followed. Complete failure, no data recoverable. The last step was "I dunno, go ask someone on IRC." Great.

It's understandable that corruption can happen due to bugs or hardware failure or user insanity, but my experience was that the recovery tools are useless, and that's a big problem.
