Samba drives me insane. libsmbclient is not thread safe, nor can it be used asynchronously. So the only way to have multiple operations in flight at the same time (even to different servers) is to have one process per operation. Also, it is very difficult to port to Redox. We desperately need a pure Rust SMB client.
