Hi Jochen, Marcin and Bill,

> Some minor remarks below.

Thanks for the feedback. I admit the code is not near perfection, but then 
 i think that comes after the community finds the idea any worth.

> will it interface with crypto applications like LUKS? 
   It should work with LUKS, as it transparently emulates a file as a block device. 
 Please suggest a test case(webpage?) to verify it against LUKS, as i don't know much about it.

 As i said the code was just as a proof of concept hastily put together. I heard Linux folks hate Ideas without code :)
 Btw, i personally believe not everyone with an idea could code well and not every good programmer is as well creative.

Regards,
-Jassi
