I didn't mean it should fork per directory. I only meant that
nested directories should be merged in the same way as the
top-level directory.

Each process has a current directory and a root directory, and in
the Hurd those are handled in much the same way as open files.
The shadowfs must be able to list the contents of such an open
directory and look up files in it.

Are you talking about the Hurd or something else?
