Description
Hi there
Would be great if you could add files directly in the filesystem and they would then be visible through the web interface.
I use the filesystem datastore and mounted an NFS volume. It is easier for me to copy large files directly into the NFS volume instead of having to upload them through the webinterface.

Research direction
Start by tracing the filesystem datastore and the existing web-interface upload flow. Determine how files copied into the mounted NFS volume could be discovered and represented in the web interface, then verify that directly added files are visible without a web upload.
