Yeah, I know. The problem is that one needs to figure out the mount
options. You have basicly two options: Implement everything yourself
(just have a look at gnome-mount and you'll see why this is not
something one wants to do) or use gnome-mount (which, as the name
suggest, is very GNOME specific).
A sane solution would have been to merge pmount (or even the relevant
parts from gnome-mount) into HAL and just provide a Mount() method that
does everything and returns the final mount on success. This way,
there'd be a central place for configuration (-> HAL) and not some bits
in gconf, others in fstab, etc. And even more important there wouldn't
be another gconf dependency.
