The /etc/fstab file is parsed by many programs, shell scripts, and not just the ones in util-linux. We should consider it an ABI, and not mess with it. Pedantically speaking /etc/fstab is not API, getmntent is API. In practical terms though it would be very 'interesting' to implement getmentent with an fstab.d, if not down right impossible because the argument is a FILE *. So with a good coding hat on - please don't consider fstab API, it's got a programming interface 8). Otherwise I agree fstab.d is wrong.
