Getting a bit philosophical here, so I'm splitting this off from the previous topic.

As long as NFS and SMB clients can access our storage, and we have GFAPI as well, the additional value of a native (e.g. FUSE) client is actually rather small.  I personally think it's still a better way to do things on Linux where it's already well supported, but it's a bit harder to make the same argument on OSes where our dependencies are themselves in worse shape.
