It handles volume requests supposedly and lets you ASSIIGN them to directories. I am not so sure about how it handles image MOUNTs.

Handy but not indispensable.

EDIT: I had a quick nose in the source code, it makes an unconditional jump to an absolute address early in the code. I don't know if that's all that's wrong with it, could be,
