I don't personally have any EFS filesystems but that doesn't mean that
others don't.

Like I said, we've already found some problems, and like I said I'd
like to fix those before it becomes a FUSE as you suggested. So I
guess I'll volunteer to do some major development for it as well.

Because in my eyes it's an awful practice to just delete something
overnight (probably not your plan but still), I think we need to have
some maintenance for some time before this gets removed.
