i.e. a block number and a slot position within the block?

Seems like you'd need <file,block,slot>.

No, that's what I mean. Leave as it is. You will have file logical length (fixed for all but the last one, 1GB currently) and file actual legth that can be less (if file trucated). In the latter case you still have this "empty" blocks that don't exists at all. Actually the simplest implementation could be to tell to file system "drop this part of file and pretend it's all zeros", but I don't think many FSs (OSes?) supports this.
So, each  file still have it's fixed N blocks. And filenumber is still blocknumber / N.
