Translators on directories are a combo of automount+userland
filesystem, with the addition on having them saved in the mounted-on
filesystem. Rather nice actually. Replacing /etc/fstab with
local-to-the-mountpoint information has some charm. I'm not sure if
translator-on-files actually exist.
Note that in hurd all filesystems are userland. Whether it is a good
thing is left as an exercise to the benchmarker and the deadlock
chaser.
OG.
