By default umount(8) requires an entry in /etc/fstab. This behaviour
could be changed by uhelper= mount option (the option has to be in
mtab). The solution based on uhelper= also sucks, because it requires
userspace specific mount option...
This is reason why I think that /etc/mount.d/fuse.conf would be better
than add an exception to the code or use uhelper= mount option. The
same problem we have with HAL (udisks) where non-root user stuff is
not in fstab.

It will require the exception for fuse.
