It is not UDF / filesystem specific stuff. You can use any other filesystem which you like, for example ext4. And in past some people really used ext2 on CD-RWs. And on Windows systems before Vista, only FAT32 was supported in read-write mode on CD-RW. UDF even on CD-RW was read-only.
So FUSE here really does not help. As we are talking about block storage, not filesystem storage.
