May I *STRONGLY* urge you to name that something different.
"lost+found" is a name with special properties in Unix; for example,
many backup solutions will ignore a directory with that name.
Yeah, the original proposal (in TODO list) explicitly stated why
I chose lost-found instead of lost+found back then, and somebody
on the list (could have been Pasky but I may be mistaken) said
not to worry. In any case, if we go the route Daniel suggests,
we would not be storing anything on the filesystem ourselves so
this would be a non-issue.
Just realized one more issue with this... a lot of non-Unix filesystems
can't deal with files with a + sign.
