It's technically very difficult to do, but it is something that is
obviously useful, so I'm trying to figure out how to do it in autofs
v4.  The problem is that almost everything that browses does both a
readdir() and a stat(); the readdir() is easy but keeping the stat()
from mounting the filesystem is really, really hard...
