What's the probability to discover those other files thru the same way you
learned about the first (querying servers, or source propagation,...) ?

Well, I think that what matters is that only a small number of filerequests
is sent on the general case (the number of "additionnal file requests"
should be bounded by some constant ?)

And if possible nothing on incoming connection from clients not known to be
the source of any file, because I think that includes Lugdunum servers 
test connections.
