Given what Karel has said, I'm not sure that would give the correct
behavior:
The problem is that mount(8) is not just about mount(2) call only. If
we drop privileges then mount(8) will report problems with things like
FS detection, loopdevs setups, etc. It's necessary to review the code
and make errors/warnings somehow usable.
