 Description   

GridFS currently creates chunks even for very small files. Those could be inlined into the fs.files document. Has this been considered and/or tested for performance implications?

Lots of people inline small images already outside of gridfs.
I'm not sure we would do this in gridfs except for very small ( < 2k maybe ) so that the files collection remains dense.
