A preliminary version of Fissle is available in Subversion. Using this version you can execute fissle from the command line to locate a file within a directory. You can search for complete paths or specific file names. It also supports case insensitive searching.
Okay, so far it is not nearly so powerful as find. It isn't done yet. :)

Fissle, the File System Service for Linux, was created today. Fissle will offer a searchable virtual file service that can access multiple local or network mounted directories and allow users to simply search for complete or partial filenames and, if the user has rights to access the file, retrieve a URI to obtain the file. Users don't have to know where the file is located exactly, and administrators don't need to set up complex rights for each location. Fissle will also support chaining to other fissle services.
