You hit the nail on the head.  This is going to be a increasingly bad 
problem as we continue pushing in this of networked storage.

It would be REALLY nice, if an I/O fails, to simply have the process 
attempting the I/O to be killed, instead of bringing the machine to its 
knees and locking up or panic the kernel.
