To provide a "full" name through ATTR_CMN_NAME, MacFUSE will have to
talk to the user-space file system, which means the kernel-user API
(the FUSE API in ntfs-3g's case) will have to be extended, which means
the user-space file system will, in addition to mangling, also have to
implement the new callback(s).
