Basically it would work like this.  On the client you'd have a deployable configuration for remote VFS.  The configuration would accept a name for the remote VFS which would be used in the uri (e.g. "vfsremote://my-remote-vfs/the/path"), and would also be used as the group name for the VFS service (so that there could be more than one provider for the same remote VFS service within a cluster, for example).

Then for every provider of that VFS instance, there would be a Remoting service deployed which would handle the forwarded VFS calls.

One interesting aspect of this is that if a node uses a vfsremote that is actually located on the same node, then the usual call-by-reference optimization takes place; it should not be too much more expensive than a regular local access.

Make sense?
