I'm not sure anyone other than Craig really understands the 
rsync-in-perl or the hashing/pooling code well enough to touch it...

But the thing I alway thought should happen was some sort of merge with 
bacula code.  That is, either make backuppc able to talk to bacula's 
client agent, or put backuppc's file pooling code into bacula's disk 
archive handling.

As for fuse, it is a nice idea but I doubt if you'll like the 
performance on operations that have to uncompress the files.
