No. I see many issues with inotify (basically, all items from the
Limitation and caveats section make it non-applicable for XtraBackup
purposes). It can only be used reliably for XtraBackup to be notified
when _something_ has changed in datadir. But as I wrote, detecting
changes is easy, acting on them is not.
