[physfs] Multiple contexts in one process

I have multiple components in a process where each has a view to a section
of the filesystem, and I'd ideally like to have each of these moved to
PhysicsFS for various reasons, with transparent support for compressed
archives being somewhere near the top of that list. As of PhysicsFS 3.x
there doesn't seem to be a way to have multiple contexts living together
inside the same process.

Am I missing some way to do this (other than having multiple directories
under "/" for each component and mapping component #1's "/foo/bar" to
"/__component_1/foo/bar" internally? If not, would it be possible to
propose and / or implement such functionality for a future version of
PhysicsFS?
