You can get that with IP tunnel compression. Trouble is, NFS (v2/v3/v4; and younger protocol designers are even worse by telling you 'dunno care about high latency [ > 4 sec roundtrip ] any more' [yeah? wanna pester? old RFS and AFS did a better job...]) are highly sensitive to latency, and like ssh the high latency causes more trouble than its worth.
