Ok, that's got nothing to do with unionfs.  That's a mount option
(that may or may not work for different fstypes?).

Yes, it's silly and confusing that they're called the same thing.

I've been suggesting the filesystem be renamed "onionfs" for a long
time.  I was thinking about peeling layers at the time, but the fact
that it's so full of bugs as to make you cry is also a good reason for
the name :)
