Para quem ainda não conhece o LUFS permite usuários comuns montarem FTP, 
SFTP (SSH), GNUTELLAFS, GVFS, CARDFS, CEFS nos seus diretórios pessoais 
como se fossem dispositivos de armazenamento locais.

Realmente muito interessante e prático.

LUFS is a hybrid userspace filesystem framework supporting many "exotic" 
filesystems (localfs, sshfs, ftpfs, httpfs, socketfs, freenetfs, and 
nutellafs) transparently for any application. It can be regarded as 
doing the same job as the VFS (virtual filesystem switch) in the kernel: 
it is a switch, distributing the filesystem calls to its supported 
filesystems. However, LUFS filesystems are implemented in userspace. 
This would be a drawback for local filesystems where the access speed is 
important, but proves to be a huge advantage for networked filesystems 
where the userland flexibility is most important.
