On second thought, RGs are semi-trusted components. It should be fine if they know this information, since the operator may deploy an RG driver that makes use of this information (and more) to make intelligent storage decisions. For example, blocks from one file might go to storage provider A, and blocks from another might go to provider B. Another example, blocks from one gateway (belonging to a particular user) should go to that user's designated provider.
Make the names opaque--the cloud host should not be able to tell which Volume they came from, or which file, or when, or which block ID.
