Not sure if I good understand. Do you have any example?
Do you mean mount options? The library uses the mnt_mangle functions
for all strings that are read/write to/from the *tab files. You don't
have to care about " \t\n\\".
The problem is comma (','), it should not be used in the strings --
exception are SELinux mount options where comma is acceptable if the
option uses quotes (e.g. context="aaa,bbb,ccc").
