Have the potential abuses been addressed? The first thing that comes to mind is:

For the wikitechers, WikipediaFS virtually mounts the Wikipedia website so you can view and edit Wikipedia articles as if they were real files.
This is really awesome. Is there any chance you could change the name of the project, though? Wikipedia is a trademark, and your project can do a lot more than hook into just Wikipedia. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org http://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
I just tried "rm -rf *" at the Command Prompt and it just said "Bad command or filename" - so I think it'll be alright ;)

Why would this not scale? File system wrappers such as FUSE allow you to override read/write/readdir etc. Of course readdir() on /enwiki/ would be terribly slow but so would the equivalent operation on Special:Allpages, there's no reason why read/write operations wouldn't scale however.
Please tell me you're joking.
