VFS-level union is promising. Actually I am going to try that after aufs
in the future. I didn't know that people re-started working on union
mount. It is interesting.

I have been asked to include aufs into mainline from several people
several times. As long as you have strong NACK for aufs and reject all
union-type filesystems, I have to give up unwillingly and will answer
them "Aufs was rejected. Let's give it up."
