Joliet is not a real ISO-9660 extension, it is rather a similar FS that
coexists with ISO-9660 and that may share data blocks but definitely does
not share meta-data (file names...) with the ISO-9660 part.
If you adhere to the MS Joliet specs, file names are limited to 64 characters.
This alone may make the Joliet tree different from the other trees.

I wrote the Joliet extensions for the hsfs module.
