the problem is exatly "last use". I do not want to search for
tasks holding my fs open and kill them before I can unmount it.
That is all.
And you can't be sure you do not have something holding your fs open.
And the same goes for a large number of users it seems at least
those coming from windows world.
Just to explain main difference between supermount and the rest
of automounters (I have seen so far) and reason for complexity.
