I have heard someone else had ever tried similar approach, but I don't
know the result.

You also need to pay attentions to,
- CONFIG_AUFS_HINOTIFY and udba=inotity option
  since you create or remove files on the branches directly.
- plink/noplink option and /sbin/auplink
  since you create or remove files on the branches directly. probably
  you need to flush all pseudo-links before you access the (new) middle
  branch.
- xino=path option
  since the xino files are created on the first writable branch by
  default.
- the EXAMPLE in the aufs manual. but it might be very old and less
  tested.
