Actually, something I'd like to see is a more general way to report
the availability of services. Coda is much less of an issue (it
manages its own namespace), but there are all kinds of other server
reporting that would be good.
Perhaps this could be built on top of DNS or LDAP.
It's probably worth pointing out that needing to know which server a
service resides on is a Bad Thing[TM]; it is vital that this system
allows for the network manager to abstract this out (announce the
print services on "printserver.domain.com" rather that
"honda.domain.com", because next week the print server might be
running on "volvo.domain.com" instead.)
