Does this want something like:

.fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT

This design may have the annoying property that, if a namespace-based
sandbox wants to use kdbus itself, it will need to proxy anything from
the parent that it wants to use.

Is there a good reason why individual *busses* don't show up in the
filesystem? If they did, maybe they could be bind-mounted or
otherwise arranged to cross namespace boundaries.
