OK, just noticed that Christophe basically suggested the same thing,
which leads me to think that it might not be such a bad idea :-)
(sorry, my email client marked all the ML messages as read at some point
and I am just catching up, I did not realized I missed a bunch!).

Hi Jerome,
I've been working on userspace-backed backstores, and am now working on
how best to represent them in targetcli. Here's what I have so far:
https://fedorapeople.org/~grover/targetcli-user-screenshot.png
This puts user-backed backstores under /backstores/user, and the
existing kernel-based backstores are under /backstores. The issue being
that the alternating-hierarchy-color feature colors user-backstores the
same as storage objects ("blah" and "glfs" are colored the same).
Do you have any thoughts on if there are better ways we could clearly
represent user-backed backstores? Would perhaps listing all backstores
together be better, or even putting the existing ones under "kernel"? Or
some other thing we could do?
Thanks -- Regards -- Andy
