Okay, so when the filesystem daemon starts, before actually mounting the
fuse filesystem, it does 'mount --bind /cloud/fs /tmp/cloudcache'.  Then
when it's getting files from the cloud it writes them to files under
/tmp/cloudcache.  After umounting the fuse filesystem from /cloud/fs the
cached files will be visible there.
