The main use though is chroot's, as john pointed out (and what i'm
using them for). What i'd really like though is ability to bind to
any name, not just directories, eg to mount /bin/ls
/somewhere/chroot/bin/ls. that'd be neat, but i guess mount point ==
directory is a fairly ingrained assumption in the vfs. ah well.
