Hmm yeah this is where the problems with VFS2 started. In the end ProfileService does not know what the deployers are internally doing with the VirtualFile and it actually should not need to know. However not using VFS to do modification checks seems to just move the workarounds to somewhere else.

In general ProfileService only needs the orignal/unmounted view. There is no need to access the contents of a zip or temp files - therefore it makes sense that there is no auto-mounting done at this level. 

The ModificationChecker was originally part of ProfileService and would rather belong there. Although i'm not really sure about the temp sync part though. Since the farming service needs something like this it might could be part of this as well. For now it does not really matter where the ModificationChecker is located, but there should be a way to access the actual VirtualFile which was used to create the VFSDeployment in the first place.
