This is true for about > any filesystem that is more or less native to Linux (ext*, xfs, etc.). I'm not sure about your point here. What I wanted to say is that in order to make a mount point which is defined in "/etc/fstab" being writeable by your users the mount point has to have the proper permissions if not, depending on the path it is located (e.g., my backup disk is mounted under "/data/backup" to avoid loops when running the tar routine to make a copy of my "/home" directory), it will be owned by "root" which is not usually what the user wants.
