Creating directory within a /mnt/pve/ directory to use for Bind Mounts?

Hello!

I've recently configured a new Proxmox system with a variety of VMs and containers, including an unprivileged container running a Turnkey Linux File Server with a Bind Mount (and the associated UID mappings) to a folder I created within a Proxmox directory storage.

Since this bind mount will store large amounts of NAS-like shared data, I wanted to validate that my location of this directory won't later cause problems with any Proxmox updates or etc.

Specifically, I've placed my bind-mounted folder at: /mnt/pve/hdd-raid/bindmounts/backups, where hdd-raid corresponds to a directory storage created within PVE GUI.

Other folders inside the hdd-raid directory includes dump, images, snippets, etc.

Anyone experienced with such a setup? Thank you for your time!
