I see what you're after.  If that's all you want, though, I have to
confess I don't see how it would be too hard to implement.  You could
just write a shim filesystem that would sit on top of /net and monitor
walk's and handle importing and mounting for you.  If you followed a
simple convention of always referring to a filesystem as, say,
'/a/<machine>' then it wouldn't require any configuration at all.
Hell, you could probably even implement it as a shell script.

What's not there, aside from the program itself, of course?
