But you'd have the 9p module, obviously. It's such a nonsene that the
linux kernel doesn't allow mounting for non-privileged users
out-of-the-box, IMO. I like filesystems in userspace.
Yeah but it did allow that, it would currently allow users to bind
their own passwd file or sudoers etc etc over /etc (unless they had an
implementation that prevented such things).
The problems in unix really were too deep to fix at some point... at
least in any elegant way :-)
