But that's the point of the repos layer. To be a wrapper for the FS
layer. In fact, there was a time when our auth mechanisms was going
to be entirely hook-driven, which would have meant literally wrapping
every FS call with a repos one. As it stands with locking, we're
talking about probably only three functions (lock, unlock, and
is_locked), right?
