Otherwise, there can be a case when a user will get access to some extra mounts For example, let's imagine that we have three mounts: A: root: /test/subtest shared: 1 B: root: /test C: root: / shared: 1 A and B is in the same mount namespaces and a test user can access them. C is in another namespace and the user can't access it. Now, we add B to the shared group of A and then another user mounts a forth mount to /C/test/subtest2. If we allow to add B to the shared group of A, our test user will get access to the new mount via B/test/subtest2. Thanks, Andrei
