A quick reflection...
I can imagine that any FUSE-Java solution will be difficult to ship when 
in the near future, Java SE 6 becomes the default Leopard Java release. 
Since Apple only released Java 6 as a 64-bit JVM (which I can't use on 
my 32-bit Intel mac... thanks very much Apple), any libraries linking to 
it must also be built 64-bit... and the MacFUSE libraries aren't 64-bit yet.
Of course, it's only a matter of staying with Java 5 and making sure its 
binaries are invoked upon launch... or instructing users to install 
SoyLatte which can deliver 32-bit Java 6.
Still, i can imagine that it may cause some confusion.

I have developed a Java-based FUSE file system myself, rarfs_fuse 
(mounts single or split .rar-files and provides direct access to 
uncompressed entries), which I use quite often on my Mac. When 
developing, I initially tried to get FUSE-J to work, but I abandoned it 
and wrote my own custom bindings. It isn't too difficult if you're used 
to JNI.
