This would probably be best done in userspace, using either fuse or a fully userspace tool. The biggest problem is that if you update the files, you need to re-write the container. Think about the case where you have a 400 megabyte .gz file, and you update something that's 200K in and the new one is 3 bytes longer than the old one - almost 400 meg has to be re-written. Not something you want to be doing inside the kernel.
