Sounds good. The hostfs module source code comes from arcem, I think.
This can be downloaded from arcem.sf.net.

Sounds like a good starting point. I'll probably add a third option to
specify read-only or read-write. I may split it up into 3 lines (for
readability, and for Windows/MacOS which is more likely to have spaces
in the path):
hostfsname0 = Boot
hostfspath0 = ~/hostfs
hostfsperm0 = read,write
hostfsperm(n) would default to read-only, I think.

That should be fairly easy to implement. I'll work on that.
