well, not really. unionfs is close because with a "mount -o bind" and additive mounting my problem would be solved, but what i'm looking for is a very high-level solution. as i said, my idea of solving this is to have an inclusion directive in directory-files...

has nobody ever felt the lack of such functionality??

I guess not.

What exactly does this help you to do?

What do you want to accomplish?

How can you make /home & /opt from one fs to appear together with
/usr from another fs?

Symlinks? A lot of distros & apps do not support this because of
references like '../../../bin/echo'.
And sometimes one may need to do references like this. Symlinks do
not help... :-(((
