Yes, put all those in /mnt may be one choice.
This is beacuse those are the mounting points of one of user level 
file servers, too.

I thought in this line an example of /mnt/cd, (probably put by Russ?).
Here, he may thought it has a particular function not only for files,
but also make sounds, then, it should be onto /mnt file sever point.
Most importantly, it could not imported from another machine.
Of in that case, sounds are coming from another machine.  ^_^
But I'm not Russ, anyway.

I supposed the reason why a: or 9fans etc are put in /n is that they
shows just file trees as others imported from network.  However,
files under /mnt have some function to do, and usually for the file
server running on the machine.   In Plan 9 all the resources are files, 
yes, it's true.   However...

This is the reason why I proposed to make /m or /media directory.
