Not really. We have our own local solution for this (see below) so if you or someone else wants to pick it up, please go ahead. > How are you managing in the meantime.

This patch series changes the protocol and the feature bit we were using was claimed by FUSE_SUBMOUNTS instead so carrying it locally is not really viable long term. Instead we're carrying a patch similar to the original RFC patch that doesn't change the protocol [1].
