As discussed in #128, I'd be in favour of using the actual data chunk (immutable or structured - it doesn't matter) that's closest to the requested (nonexistent) one as a seed. That information - which one is the closest existing chunk to that address - should also be known by only the close group of that data, and as soon as there are much more data chunks than nodes, the close group of a nonexistent data name will almost always be identical with the close group of a close existing chunk, so their responses will accumulate.

I also favour this approach.
