That bit is easy.  Look at each line in fstab.  If the device is static, leave 
it at supermount.  If it's not, replace 'supermount' with 'auto'.  You will 
have to manually mount it to use it, but that's troublefree as long as you 
have 'user' in the line.

Correct

There seems to be very little known about the causes of this problem.  It 
could be udev or it could be hotplug - at least, I suspect that some 
developers are working hard on it, but there are no hard-and-fast answers 
available on the lists as far as I can see.  For the moment, it seems to mean 
find a workaround that you can live with.  I haven't checked whether KwikDisk 
is available on 10.1 - if it is, it will help you with mounting the removable 
disks.
