This makes directories inter-dependent, and thus much harder to generate piecemeal. I've no idea how to do this yet.
Generating the whole hierarchy at once and holding it in memory might be an acceptable first approximation, but it won't work if we want billions of files (1 billion 64-bit inodes = 7.5 gigabytes of data, but we also need meta-data of what inodes are directories containing which file inodes).

Right now, PlentyFS contains just one directory with a fixed number of files. Ideally, it should generate a random hierarchy instead.
This is trickier than generating random files because:
