Actually, it looks like things aren't so simple.  I'm trying to implement a 
loopback slot driver, but I think something keeps on closing the FileRef handle 
to the file where the filesystem is stored.  I've tested this hypothesis by 
opening the file before every sector read/write and closing it afterwards, 
which made it all work pretty well, but of course that's a very slow way of 
doing it.  

I'd like to be able to keep the FileRef handle persistently valid, but it 
doesn't seem to want to do that.  Does VFSMgr close handles opened with the 
stay-open attribute under some circumstances, for instance when volumes are 
mounted and mounted, or when some apps run?
