This remind me Plan 9&#x27;s &quot;single most important feature&quot;[1]:<p>&gt; all mounted file servers export the same file-system-like interface, regardless of the implementation behind them. Some might correspond to local file systems, some to remote file systems accessed over a network, some to instances of system servers running in user space (like the window system or an alternate network stack), and some to kernel interfaces. To users and client programs, all these cases look alike.<p>[1] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.catb.org&#x2F;esr&#x2F;writings&#x2F;taoup&#x2F;html&#x2F;plan9.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.catb.org&#x2F;esr&#x2F;writings&#x2F;taoup&#x2F;html&#x2F;plan9.html</a>
