fsinfo() then allows you to retrieve them by path or by mount ID.
Shouldn't the notification interface provide the unique ID?
Hmmm... If I'm going to do that, I have to put the fsinfo-core branch first
otherwise you can't actually retrieve the unique ID - and thus won't be able
to make sense of the notification record. Such a rearrangement might make
sense anyway since Ian and Karel have been primarily concentrating on fsinfo
and only more recently started adding notification support.
OTOH mount notification is way smaller and IMO a more mature
interface. So just picking the unique ID patch into this set might
make sense.
Thanks,
