Re: [opensuse-factory] to tmp-on-tmpfs or not tmp-on-tmpfs

Well, for services this may make sense but for user sessions the
namespace for /tmp doesn't answer the question whether to use tmpfs or
if not where to store the local tmp. Also a namespace on /tmp would
permanently hide the real /tmp from the user, right?

Yes, it would hide it,

IIRC, but I've made mistakes here, there's no way to associate
something to more than one namespace. At least that's true with
network namespaces. That would make it difficult for "shared files" or
preexisting files in /tmp.

Aside from that, the namespace solution is really nice. Secure,
elegant. I like it.
