It's a shame licensing issues prevented (first-party) ZFS support from ever materializing on OS X. ZFS makes creating file systems as easy as creating folders -- it would perfectly support a "one file system per project" approach with none of the overhead of disk images. Useful for Media Composer as well (which like FCP X also wants its media files to live in a special location relative to the root of the file system -- and doesn't even organize them as well as FCP X does.)
