Adding support functions to the console client itself sounds like a good idea: the console client would provide a simple API (maybe even simpler than that of libtrivfs) that could be used by its drivers that need to communicate to the outside world via the filesystem. Typically drivers would just need to define a `read' and a `write' function and pass pointers to them as well as a preferred node name to `console-client'.
