Guy,

Sorry, if I misled you or anybody else.

I never mentioned SMB oplocks, as well as it 
was not mentioned in the original question.

I described a model that I wanted to add to NFS4 two years ago, 
adding right now lease TMO to raise reliability and make call-backs optional. 
The model may look a bit more complicated than CIFS's, but in fact 
it's very close to our locking mechanism and
probably can be implemented as a single server module.
