Jeremy Fitzhardinge started a USERFS project and has this to say @
http://www.goop.org/~jeremy/userfs/


 From the README @  
http://www.penguin.cz/~jim/userfs/userfs-0.9.7-pre3.tar.gz   "Arcfs was 
written by David Gymer. It allows you to mount a compressed tar file as 
a read-only filesystem, and inspect it with normal tools. It's pretty 
neat, but not recommended for heavy "production" use, or for very large 
files."

So it's not a filesystem per se.  Hmm...
