These suggestions leave some undesirable holes open for snooping and
forged source packets.

Maybe try NFS over SSH? http://www.math.ualberta.ca/imaging/snfs/
This whole concept does assume all the interacting hosts are secure, which
may not be desirable, but treating different directories as having
different security levels could limit that (yeah, I know, keep security
in mind? Just remember the alternative...).
