I wasn't sure if you'd hate the path filtering. It was on my to-do list at one point to be able to denote "the pseudo filesystem" in some way and just politely ignore everything outside it. And, possibly, switch to keeping paths relative to it in some way. But it looked very expensive, and honestly one of the things it was waiting on was my vague belief that what pseudo really needs is to switch to using length-prefixed strings so it can stop constantly calling strlen. -s
