Generally I never liked parsing stuff like this in the kernel (proc and devfs both do this). That being said, I do see the need to make subdirs like this easier.
But what about cleanups? If I create an attribute group "foo/baz/x/" and then remove it, will the subdirectories get cleaned up too? What about if I had created a group "foo/baz/y/" after the "x" one? Or just "foo/baz"?
thanks,
