  At any rate, the broader issue is that the posix system call API assumes a
  local file system and is not network not cluster file-system aware.

It would be interesting to see someone who is affected by this implement the
readdirplus system call, modify ls to use it, and report the results.  I
suspect the system call won't go anywhere in linux without some evidence
that it solves a real problem for real users.
