not very.

the thing with the reiserfs was to create files that contained attributes (represented as a subdirectory) as well as data

this is the plain old directory-is-a-directory and file-is-a-file approach (with the addition that creatign a directory triggers a callback to create files in that directory)

nothing new that would break existing tools here, unlike the reiser4 combo-file proposal
