For ZeroFS [0], I went an alternate route with NFS/9P. I am surprised that it’s not more common as this approach has various advantages [1] while being much more workable than fuse.

Interesting! The network first point makes a lot of sense, especially bc you will most likely not access your actual datastore within the process running in the sandbox and instead just call some server that handles db access, access control etc.
