While I kind of like the idea of fragments, and them being universally searchable, IDK: it sounds like a pluggable search engine is what that OS needs, more than rethinking the FS.
Search is great, when it works. When it doesn't, it is frustrating. Github's file search regularly fails to find some files that I know exist (one of our YAML files at work, in particular, is invisible; I've learned to just not even try). "Shell" won't find the sea shell emoji in OS X. "sea" will. "Place of Interest" (the command key symbol) is also similarly frustrating.

Except they're not. Laptop's preference for SSDs means my work laptop has <300 GiB, which was full within a year.
