    Actually, it isn't quite.  All the portal filesystem will allow you
    to do is pass back a descriptor.  It does not allow you to simulate
    a filesystem.

    But something similar to what the portal filesystem does would be
    cool -- maybe a real protocol to pass the VOP requests down to a 
    user process and get responses & data.
