One situation that it would be useful is netbooting and using
/sbin/restore to rebuild filesystems over the network.  restore needs
to write temporary data to /tmp but the ramdisks don't have enough
space.  It would be handy to be able to mount /tmp on mfs.

I think it would be better it restore didn't write to /tmp, though.
