I have need of a union like filesystem but do not need that filesystem to 
be read-write.  My understanding is that the main broken-ness of the union 
filesystem is that whiteouts are likely to cause my system to panic.  Since 
I'm mounting my unions read-only, this particular problem shouldn't bother 
me.

I'm wondering if there is any other major brokeness with the union 
filesystem.  Anyone else out there play with this?
