in this specific example perhaps some minimal scratch space, but one
can quickly conceive cases where the complete file system semantics
are used, for example when you want to provide a data replication
service between sites without enforcing a global user namespace.

was this what you were asking? some of those ideas came out of 9grid,
but i don't know whether anyone has pushed them further.
