+I have factored out the proxying-bits from fakeroot so that it can be shared.
+The most simple chrooting translator is the identity translator, which proxies
+RPCs without really modifying them.  Combining the identity translator with
+`settrans --chroot` gives us `chroot(8)`.  With a little more work, I believe
+that can be used to implement `chroot(2)`.  Whether or not that is secure
+remains to be seen, maybe that is even an ill-conceived goal.
