The issue is that gui applications that support mounting expect that the user 
can mount the device, and that there is a usable fstab entry. FreeBSD  can be 
set-up to allow the former, but the latter requires per user fstab entries.  

I was just wondering if there is any way to curcumvent the restriction that a 
mount point must be owned by the mounter.
