Why? What does it bring to the table that the Linux client
does already do via v4... with the except, of course, public
filehandles, which is something I'm pretty sure the Linux
client will not support.

So again why? WebNFS died with Sun... Plus RFC2224 talks
about v2 and v3... How does it fit in a V4 world.

But of course... Patches are welcome.
