I know that forking wouldn't be a great thing, since it means that there's then
two VFSs floating around the place, but I'm not sure how the changes that have
been requested - especially switching returning arrays with returning objects
can be done on the Horde version, without breaking the rest of Horde.
I'm willing to try to keep the APIs as similar as possible, so that switching
in either direction isn't *to* painful for people, but my current thoughts are
that a fork is the only way to do this. Although I'm not sure whether it would
be a fork, or a completely different project, since the changes will be quite
substantial.
