that's the point.

since nfs is always directly mounted, i think you are confusing
direct mounts with things that are accessable because you have
mounted a server which has mounted something else.
i would think that either you want encapsulation or you don't.
see-through encapsulation would seem to me to be a contradiction
in terms.
if you don't, and you really need to know what's on the other
end, you should mount it yourself. /lib/namespace is a big
help in this.
if you do, then you don't want to care what's over there.
