Thanks, I got you now. So at least before union mounting all those store paths there should be a test checking for conflicts and a big fat warning.
I still think that all those benefits could be worth giving it a try. Probably there are even more benefits: * Because there are no more store paths in the output its easier to verify that -j4 builds craeted the same result as -j1 builds * there is a higher chance beeing ablte to reuse say gentoo ebuilds. Doing so would a add tons of packages with not much effort. So this is more an alternative which could work in most cases. It can't be a full replacement.
