For the likes of ATLAS who are big enough to have their own dedicated
pools, no. For the multitude of smaller VOs on a shared pool, having no
way to quota/reserve space is a giant pain. No sensible shared storage
should be without it, grid or otherwise. Mainly because there's nothing
stopping random user/VO X from filling the whole pool.
