With this, your recent cg-clone -l can be made to still use individual .git/object/??/ hierarchy to keep objects newly created in each repository while sharing the inherited objects from the parent repository, which would probably alleviate the multi-user environment worries you express in the comments for the option. The git-clone-script in the proposed updates branch has such a change.
