- should happen** *(10 Jul)* This is the primary requirement in being
- able to proxy the control port of `unionmount`.
+* **Add the command-line options for choosing between the transparent
+ and non-transparent unionmounts** *(10 Jul)* Using these options,
+ the user will be allowed to decide whether unionmount should be
+ completely transparent (i.e. most control-port RPCs forwarded to the
+ mountee) or not.
* **Proxy the control port of `unionmount`** *(10 Jul)* It was agreed

+ underlying node of unionfs** *(10 Jul)* Such functionality should
+ make unionmount even more transparent.

* **Try to make `eth-multiplexer` work with statically set instances
of `devnode`** *(14 Jul)* At the moment statically set `devnode`
