is cache-only-prefixes an nnpfs limitation?

Hi,

I understand that, currently, Arla must retrieve bytes 0..n of a file
in order to access byte n+1.  Is this a limitation imposed by nnpfs,
or simply the way arlad currently works?

Specifically, I'm wondering about the possibilities of writing other
filesystems that run on top of nnpfs (including the Win32 nnpfs), and
I wanted to know if this limitation would be inherited.
