[OpenAFS] Idea: tree of volumes/mounts...

Hi!

It's me again...
I've had a idea right before opening this window.
We've had only one RW copy of some root nodes of our AFS cell tree, we thought
it was not needed to backup them, it's easy to reproduce them if they went off.
E.G.: /afs/cg.cs.tu-bs.de/cd is only once available as a RW and under CD are
only other volumes, no more data.
But the cd volume got lost and now we are a bit in doubt which volume was
mounted under cd at all...
So the idea:

Is there a tool/script/idea which searches the volumes/vldb and prints out a
tree of the cell with the names of the volumes behind?
E.G.:

cg.cs.tu-bs.de		-	root.cell
|-cd			-	cd
||-game1		-	cd.game1
||-game2		-	cd.game2
|-home			-	user
||-usera		-	user.usera
||-userb		-	user.userb
|-dev			-	arbeit
|-work			-	work
||-usera		-	work.usera

and so on and so on.
Made for a easy and quick overview over the cell.
Because if you lost some of the root nodes, you are lost within the tree if you
don  know it inside your brain where the mounts are located at...
