Somehow I can't resist, but this sounds like the
devfs and RaiserFS story again:

- devfs claimed "It will solve all major/minor number problems".
Well we still struggle to get over with them. But now we have to
account for the intricacies of devfs in addition too.

- RaiserFS "Trees rule the world".
Well ext3 (no I don't care about inn server!) is faster
XFS is better manegeable. The "mutable filesystem semantics" modules
and what a not are nowehre in sight.

Both projects which got included due to "public preasure".
