about the worm feature

[ronnie sahlberg]

I think your should create a new module for this. Even if would be
based on or share a large amount of code
with vfs_worm.

The reason I think so is because 'worm' has a common meaning for
storage and it would be
confusing with a 'worm' module that does similar to but not quite 'worm'.
