I think that would be _much_ nicer implemented as a mount which is
invisible to other users, rather than one which causes the admin's
scripts to spew error messages. Is the namespace mechanism at all
suitable for that?
It would also be nice to generalise and have virtual filesystems which
are able to present different views to different users. Can FUSE do
that already - is the userspace part told which user is doing each
operation? With that, the desire for virtual filesystems which cannot
be read by your sysadmin (by accident) is easy to satisfy - and that
kind of mechanism would probably be acceptable to all.
