It's cool, if you need it (i.e. your repo is really massive). Note that it
means that you need to be online to do a number of operations that you once
thought were local, unless you do some good planning for all of the files
you may need to get your work done offline.

Windows Filter Drivers, which this is built upon, are cool -- you can add
all sorts of tricks to the file system. (FUSE in Linux is very similar.)

Our model of Spaces + multiple Codebases hopefully gives users a better
alternative -- a logical collection of multiple repos, no OS tricks
required. :)
