It would be nice to completely remove filesystem specific stuff from
mount(8). It's already done for filesystems with active community
(like extN, XFS, etc), but the rest... ;-)

And another idea... what about to add a generic filesystem(5) (or
section 7) man page to explain why we have filesystems, relation with
mkfs programs, block devices, mount(8) ?
