What about files under /proc that mountd might access? I assume these
pathnames are not affected.

Aren't there also one or two other files that maintain export state
like /var/lib/nfs/rmtab? Are those affected?

IMHO it could be less confusing to administrators to make root_dir an
[exportfs] option instead of a [mountd] option, if this is not a true
chroot of mountd.
