The mount(8) and umount(8) are very strict about user mounts and about
the way how it calls /sbin/[u]mount helpers. It was fine many years
ago, but now we have things like pam_mount, fuse, HAL/udisks where
mount/umount stuff is managed in a different way. It means that we
need exceptions... and exceptions suck.
I think about:
$ cat /etc/mount.d/fuse.conf
[usermount]
enabled = true
require_fstab_entry = false
require_helper = true
and yes, things like per-fs-type default mount options is another
possibility.
Maybe this is something what should be added to the libmount.
