the problem might be to compute the current usage of all accounts within
a domain. It won't be a problem if you have only a few accounts in a
domain, but with tens, hundreds or even thousands accounts in a domain
there will be a performance impact because you need to iterate over all
accounts (doing a HEAD on every account) and sum up the total usage.

I think some performance tests would be helpful (doing a HEAD on all
accounts repeatedly with some PUTs in-between) to see if the performance
impact is an issue at all (since there will be a lot of caching involved).
