You mean implement complete VFS ? Would be extremely interesting. Would be very cool to be able to build FUSE backends. This way we could access various filesystems, not supported by Windows. Or, if we are BSDish enough, we could take BSD filesystem modules... P.S. I know about Dokan project (http://dokan-dev.net/en/about/), but at least on my machine it didn't work, simply crashed. Additionally, i'm not sure if i can take source code of FUSE filesystem and build it for Dokan.
