Just a curious question: Do you really need this subtree separation in your envisioned containers usecase? Because there I imagine you have one project_id per container, containers form disjoint subtrees (at least their writeable parts) and each file & directory has this project_id set and you forbid to manipulate project id's from inside the container (otherwise you'd have problems with enforcing quota limits I guess). And when project_id is a per-inode property, quota has no problems with it (is well defined) even without subtree separation. So is this subtree separation really needed?
