`unionmount` to become transparent, most of the RPCs invoked on the
its control port should be forwarded to the mountee.
+* **Fix adding filesystems to `unionmount`** *(16 Jul)* `settrans -a
+ foo unionfs -a <dir> -u -t <translator>` worked, but `settrans -a
+ foo unionfs -u -t <translator> -a <dir>` didn't. The problem was
+ that in a series of rebase operations I accidentally left the
+ "Orphan the mountee" commit out and the problem appeared when the
+ `start_mountee` function tried to attach the mountee. Of course,
+ this is not the definite solution, since I don't know why should the
+ attempt to attach the mountee work in the former case and fail in
+ the latter, but I will leave the investigation for some future time.

### TODO
(Dates in brackets show the *expected* completion date)
-* **Fix adding filesystems to `unionmount`** *(16 Jul)* At the moment
- `settrans -a foo unionfs -a <dir> -u -t <translator>` works, but
- `settrans -a foo unionfs -u -t <translator> -a <dir>` doesn't.
-
* **Create the patch for supplying the mountee with a port to the
underlying node of unionfs** *(17 Jul)* Such functionality should
make `unionmount` even more transparent.
