I just wanted to chime in an agree with Amit on this. The core is the most important thing: it is designed to be flexible so other apps can use it, it is well quite well documented, and it is open source. The job of porting Fuse is a very significant one and not one that most mac devs can handle, hence Googles, and Amits expertise is extremely valuable here. Meanwhile, given documentation and the kernel module, the job of creating innovative apps to use the core in all sorts of ways is exactly what mac developers can do very well! The integration of unix tools into seamless gui apps is done commonly on the platform. Google's focusing on the core is IMHO best for the users and also the best use of expertise.
In terms of GUI applications that will come, I am sure there will be many and they will cater to different philosophies. Casey Marshall, if MacFusion isn't to your taste then I wouldn't be surprised if someone creates something in the future that will be. Of course, I'd love to hear your suggestions on how it can be made less "over-complicated".
