+# with crazy names ('\0', unicode, '/', '..')?  Huuuuge files?

+# be nice if the fuse interface did so also by hardening against such cases.

 # FIXME: This framework might be replaceable with twisted.trial,
 # especially the "layer" design, which is a bit cumbersome when
 # using recursion to manage multiple clients.
