I wasn't serious. Sudo is fine by me as well. However, having
something that is in the base system (and not in ports) to allow user
mounts would be neat. Still, KDE and GNOME and even xorg are in ports
as well, so that point is not a really strong one either.

The only thing that still nags me about the sudo solution is that if
you have to use sudo anyway, why was vfs.usermount even implemented
in the first place? Using sudo makes it redundant.
