This was the first idea. I cannot explain very well why this does not work. But I think the issue is that the borg mount magic lives inside the container so the filesystem cannot be seen from the host. You can mount an empty directory and copy the files you want to access from the host into it. Problem with that is that you are stuck with the tooling provided by the container.
