Chimera Linux is doing something like this, although without aiming for the full BSD experience, just utilising its core userland [1]. The project is in an alpha stage.

Would muxfs be easily portable to other operating systems, or does it rely on non-standard APIs?

You missed the second sentance. The length of the translated string is less critical for a tooltip compared to a toolbar filled with buttons.
