AFAIK isn't it the only "normal" official way of using the whole NT
namespace? I always find the fact that NT uses Unix-style files
(complete with ioctl :D) for device access but that part of namespace
is usually hidden deep inside...

Although what they are doing for Linux-based PalmOS replacement can
rival it... (It includes completely different system - it has unix
kernel but afaik uses many concepts alien to unix as base)
