[Feature Request] Changing the default options for a filesystem

[Torsten Spindler]

Binary package hint: udisks

Currently one has to change the devices.c file to change the default options for a file system. This should be made configurable. Background is a customer that wants to disable 'exec' on all USB keys inserted into the system.

I second that feature request.

My use case is, a teacher inserts a DVD in the LTSP server, and the students seated on thin clients can't access it unless he manually runs:
udisks --mount /dev/sr0 --mount-options=umask=0000

I'd like that umask to be configurable from some file in /etc.

I'd also appreciate an option to change the default umask.

KDE 4.6 uses udisks to (auto)mount external storage devices and if I want to share a directory on such device using samba, the directory is inaccessible from the rest of my network because the default umask is 077. I need to run manually:

udisks --mount /dev/sdb1 --mount-options umask=022

everytime I plug in my external hard drive and it's really annoying.

My use case is:

udisks --mount /dev/sda3 --mount-options UDISKS_AUTOMOUNT_HINT=always

Generator a error:
Mount Failed: Mount option UDISKS_AUTOMOUNT_HINT=always is not allowed.

My device /dev/sda3 is a ntfs
