Err, I have to refine my position Of course, the idea itself is OK - it 
is useful to make MTD-oriented software work on top of UBI. But it is 
still a hack, just because UBI != MTD subset, strictly speaking.

But again, see in my previous maul, JFFS2's gluebi port has little to do 
with a transparent MTD emulation layer. At lease the gluebi I'm aware of.
