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,
