Yes, since you (as a user-space file system developer) would "own" the file system daemon, you can do whatever you choose to do. Remember though that the MacFUSE kernel portion puts a timeout (20 seconds currently) by default on how long the daemon takes to respond to a file operation. If you involve a GUI dialog, you'll have to turn off or adjust the timeout. Otherwise, you'll see an alert panel from the kernel telling you that the daemon is not responding, and offering you to eject the volume.
