My only concern with this thing would be having users that are
crafty enough to know that they can mount some other volume 
in their home directory, but who haven't picked up on that
since they've mounted it under a forced r/w path they will
wander into the r/w version of anything under what they've
mounted, instead of what they are probably expecting.

Which is basically one example of what Russ said with "know
what to expect from it".
