After the recent bdrv_truncate() discussion, I think that may be best.

Yes, indeed. The log support is what I am working on now - all
metadata and BAT writes are supposed to go through the log, for this
reason. The next version will have log support, and so I will use
that for the BAT writes (and any other metadata writes, except the
header).
