Description
It seems that for the Keybase file system to actually work the alpha GUI needs to be running, is this correct? If so are there any plans to make it work from just the command line, for example headless box/box without running graphics server, via something like keybase filesystem mount or something that can be ran as a system daemon?

Research direction
The issue names KBFS, the alpha GUI, and a proposed keybase filesystem mount command, but no files or tests. Start by tracing how KBFS currently interacts with the GUI and determine whether headless mounting is supported; done would be a documented answer about the dependency and the feasibility or plans for command-line use.
