Hi all,

maybe a little late, but have you considered "journal" either by itself
or in conjunction with "block", i.e., "blockjournal"?

The concept of a journal to track modifications in modern file systems
is well-established, as is the name. Herein lies a potential for
misunderstanding, because a user might confuse the ddrescue journal with
the file system journal. Then again, if a user knows about file system
details, maybe they won't make that mistake.

Kind regards
Burkart
