    Gah!  What about large files?  What about *gasp* traditional databases?
    Sweet and merciful God, don't let them implement diff in the filesystem!
    That aside, there's the problem of making sure that if a partition 
is unmounted and I change the contents of a file that has a link on that 
partition, the changes should be mirrored, rather than the link severed.
