Sure. I wasn't hand waving an muttering about virus problems on Linux
desktops everywhere.
Anyway. Seems a couple of us are interested in having something more
generic at the VFS level to notify userspace about particular events
of interest (recursively registering a watcher on every directory is
silly). I really should go scope out some of the existing projects
that cover this before I decide what to do. This kind of thing should
be in mainline IMHO.
