IPFS as file system

Just curious how NodeOS can win from using IPFS as a default tool?
I know of IPFS a long time ago, but didn't know there got so far! :-D
Ok, NodeOS itself would not get too much benefict... but on the other hand, IPFS would be an interesting filesystem that users would mount their home dir on top of, and that would be something really cool :-D I was thinking to mount a WebDAV-based filesystem so the user files could be on the cloud and local hard disk just works as a cache, but using IPFS would give a lot more oportunities :-) Are you volunteer to work on that? :-P
Sooo NodeOS with the Plan9 philosophy? Distributed microkernel? That's sounds pretty cool actually.
Not sure about the distributed microkernel, but definitely, some NodeOS concepts are heavily influenced by Plan9 since I studied it for my operating system lessons :-)
The Dat Project would be another good choice!
