Yes I know the difference between a files and folders and a block device...

But I just wonder if it could be possible with some tweaking...

Seen s3ql is a fuse filesystem system and it is uses blocks, cached or 
remote...

Would it be possible to provide an extention s3ql to assign a mounted s3ql
system as ISCSI target?

In this regard I think to something such as s3ql provides a 'virtual disk 
size'
that is <parameter> GB larger then the total unencrypted/uncompressed
blocks of the s3ql filesystem, with 'virtual' 
heads/sectors/blocksize/alignment
and 'filesystem'...Or by using a 2nd cache sparse diskfile...

Doing this way, I could be able exclude nfs/smb sharing of a mounted S3ql 
filesystem
and use ISCSI which has many benefits...

Or can I do this with existing technology on linux?
