You can access names in the form that is printed with 'ls' only, I think. To solve the problem, I think the best solution would be to use stackable layering. This is a problem that somebody could already solved (search for heidemann and UCLA), if not and you have somebody that can program in C, let him add some code to the null layer template (see mount_null). One hundred lines of code, I estimate.
