That's correct.  #=E2=84=99 doesn't depend on =CE=B8fs at all.  =CE=B8fs =
can be used
without #=E2=84=99, but it does have some provisions for using #=E2=84=99=
 to provide a
/n/dump/yyyy/mmdd name space.  With similar provision, one could use
#=E2=84=99 to create a snapshotted kfs that was similarly efficient.
