I think the patch for the docs leaves too much unsaid to be useful.
E.g., after reading it, I was left as clueless as before regarding
what this feature is about.  What is a "mount namespace", for
starters?  What does it mean to "set a filesystem"?

Please consider explaining a bit of background about this in the
manual.

Thanks.
