(Get the code!)
About a dozen reboots later I can say that it's not working.
I tried a few simplifications:
1) Try with my vanilla /etc/fstab -> hangs all the time (I never got to boot to desktop this way)
2) Drop everything but home (but keep 'bootwait') -> worked once (just typing this now), needs more testing to see if this is stable
3) Drop everything but home (also drop 'bootwait') -> this feels like a regression over the previous state (precise packages). I would hang about 70% of the time I've tried it. If it managed to boot to desktop /home would not be mounted! IIRC mountall in precise automatically adds 'bootwait' for /home, is this not the case in quantal?
I also got a case that feels like something else is affecting this. With just /home (without bootwait then) I got to the step where everything was mounted but apparently mountall didn't say it was "done". Looking at the log file I see that mountall could not talk to plymouth. I have a log file to show:
