This might not be popular among most Plan9 users, but I started thinking about
the possibility of FUSE on Plan9 after seeing the FUSE on WebDAV [1] project.
At least on 9front, WebDAV should be integrated in webfs.

purpose file systems.
It's been a few years since I really looked at
What might be more interesting is a 9pfuse, analogous to davfuse (thus the
opposite of the thing in p9p now), running on Unix. That way you have a high
probability of working with the existing fuse plugs, without having to do any
porting work there, and plan 9 systems can still get at them.
Drawterm exports local fs (ntfs, ext, etc.) to plan 9; you could make an
exportfs only version.
Russ did 9pfuse several years ago; allows fuse fs access to Plan 9 file server.
iirc worked with Linux and Mac OS X.

i dont see why webdav should be integrated in webfs. webfs
is plan9's low-level http library.

OK then I just mis-understood
why do you insist on fuse? it looks really complicated and linux specific
to me. the work of reimplementing linux in plan9 with symlinks, ioctls,
select might be far more complicated than just porting ntfs driver to a lib9p
fileserver without reimplementing a linux emulation environment to run
there is a WebDAV client in my contribution adds, which sits on top of webfs.
