Non only a corner case.
What if fsck delete a file due to a missing inode or similiar corruption?
This happened to me more than once before (not with gluster)

XFS was famous to set length to 0 to some corrupted files, years ago.
this doesn't trigger any self healing

Anyway,  what would happen trying to access (through gluster) to a file
that has zero lenght on one node and proper size the other replicas? Will
this trigger healing for that file?
