You can and it has been done. The difference from Multics, which is
more fundamental than it sounds, is that you can't terminate,
which means you can't change references in programs to go from one version of
something to another. You can't have explicit search rules
(as opposed to the implicit hierachical ones that exist now)
for complicated reasons that are explained in a file with a name
something like LMDOC;PACKD
