With pseudo-fs hammer, will i be able to specify size for each pseudo 
filesystem? Is this basically going to eliminate the need for disklabels? 
That would be fantastic. ie. single real hammer filesystem, with a pseudo 
filesystems for /usr, /home and friends and be able to shrink them/expand 
them as needed. Will these pseudo file systems be specified in fstab like 
normal, and able to mount/umount them as needed?

Cheers,
Petr
