    Just to be clear, then: this idea is fundamentally different from the
    mkdir/cd analogy the thread starts with above. And it misses one rather
    important requirement compared to mkdir/cd: You can't add a new mount to
    an existing shell.

    Several more complicated schemes that may achieve that are being discussed
    in this thread.
