What if we always map access to \.\X: is always mapped to mountmgr, and let mountmanager open \.\X:: that would be mapped to /dosdevices/x::, any ioctl, and read/write stuff that mountmgr can't handle can then be forwarded to the raw device, if available.
Do you think that would be an appropiate solution?
No, things that can be done locally through the fd shouldn't have to go through mountmgr, especially not read/writes.
