What about removing backstores/user and prefixing the user-backed
backstores names:
+-- backstores

Sure, we could do this. It lets the user clearly know e.g. glfs is
userspace-backed, but still suggests the user can configure it the same
way as the built-in backstores.
What about using something that makes it explicit, like:
|-- file (externally managed)
or something to that effect?
We could put that in the summary (over on the right) but the actual node
names are paths that people can "cd" into, so we probably want to limit
what we put there, no?
Oh yes, obviously. Sorry, the formatting within the email reply was not
up to the task, but this is what I meant.
As for the names themselves, I think Christophe suggestion of using a
prefix makes sense to prevent possible name clashes with the regular
backstores, unless you can guarantee that this cannot happen?
