Sure, that's perfectly fine in my opinion.

Will do.


As for the thesis itself: I read it (while waiting for the train home
from FOSDEM -- I had some hours to spend there), and I liked it!  :-)

And, as far as I know, it's the first real documentation about how these
parts of libstore and IOCTL handling work.

(For the record, I did not / not yet verify all of the non-trivial stuff
you describe or propose, like the authentication protocols, etc.)
