Historically the view has been if you want NFS-like filesystem over SSH write a dedicated subsystem.  The OpenSSH project stopped following the sftp spec when it tried to "be-everyting-to-everyone" protocol instead of a clean and simple ftp/scp replacement.  As filesystem sharing protocols have oddies between platforms that add a lot of complexity and are unsuited for the original sftp purpose.

I suspect this view point still hasn't changed since I officially left the project.

What do you think of this plan? Does it sound like something that
could be accepted? Of course, if anyone can think of a better way to
implement this, I'd also be glad to read it.

And just for completion, if this gets a "go ahead", I'll also work on
making sshfs support this.
I'd love to hear a maintainer's point of view here.
