Agreed.

I don't see any reason for this.  If the filesystem happens to
implement such an internal namespace, then it can maintain that
internally and only expose access to it via the system namespace.  The
API doesn't have to give access to it (if it did, it wouldn't be an
internal namespace any more!)

Cheers,
