I am going to need a bit more information on this. Below are a few questions I have. 1. Will a StructureDeployer still be responsible for invoking the mount operation and registering it with the registry? 2. Does it make sense to duplicate a registry of mounts, since there are already stored in the VFS in the mounts map? Could the VFS be beefed up to support this use as well? 3. How will references from outside the deployment get a reference to the mount? What keeps the outside reference from just using the VirtualFile and ignoring the registry? I am assuming the cleanup from a deployment will be easy enough as this will only require a VirtualFile. I may have missed some conversations on this. Just want to make sure I have all the info.
