I think these big changes should await to include also your 
planed changes to increase efficiency.  

Moreover, I'd support the idea of branching the libkarma project:  
one branch would keep developping and stabilizing the current
code, without important (API) changes; the other would start a
new library (e.g., `lkarma' or `libkarma+') where we can take
advantage of all we have learnt with libkarma and make things
better/simpler wherever possible.  

Also lkarmafs should branch;  the new one implementing a fully
flexible virtual filesystem based on the path DB file.

Best,
EV.
