It would seems to me a better idea to order the VFS around queries - a command-line command returns a query id, which represents a directory in the VFS (such that the command is a bit like a mkdir for the VFS), the dir might then be &#x27;&#x2F;foo&#x2F;tmsumountpoint&#x2F;&lt;queryid&gt;&#x2F;&#x27;, and contains symlinks for all files found in the query.<p>I&#x27;m sure FUSE can do this.
