plan9 already supports extended attributes. e.g. upasfs(4) and
lnfs(4). there are also tools that let you access extended
attributes created on other systems: aux/olefs
maybe you should ask the "right" fs:
% upas/fs
% grep jason /mail/fs/mbox/*/from
or
% lnfs /
% touch /usr/glenda/other_examples_of_file_as_a_filesystem_include_MS_OLE_structured_storage
