Per-process namespaces which gives each process its own table of mounts and binds. This is how Plan 9 works where you setup the environment with a script or via calls to mount(2) and bind(2). When you log in your profile sets up all your mounts/binds in your root namespace and every process you create thereafter inherits them. Then you change these mounts/binds as needed.
