New feature - File Server Roaming in Notes and Domino 8.5 - Anyone is planning to use it?

With my search about OffLine folder and running Notes on a network share, i've opened a PMR about this to know if it's still an issue in Notes 8.5. Is is, but the analyst brought me with this suggestion, it's a new feature of Notes 8.5. The roaming in Notes already exists but now it is a new set of files that can be added in the roaming.

What is File Server roaming?

File server roaming is the ability to house a roaming user's files on a standard file server instead of a Domino server. This functionality has been requested by customers who have users who roam between multiple workstations but in a location without a "local" Domino server.

Did you know?
Anyone is planning to use it?

I'm gonna look in that directions, it seems vey interesting because it can be enabled via policies. It could also be enable in conjunction with the ID Vault
