Unix just doesn't seem to be designed that way. Consider the case of NFS mounts which block everything on any network outage. When running the latest KDE if you have an NFS server become unresponsive then it causes most of the desktop environment to become unusable too, even if the NFS mount was under /mnt (IE not in the path and not used by most programs).
Is this a bug or a consequence of design choices? What's the cause?
