Someone at the 9bof claimed that at least one of the BSDs already
permits users to mount things on any directory for which they have
write permission. I suspect that the policy actually needs to be a
little stricter than that; you don't want people mounting
(system-wide) on /tmp. Perhaps any directory that you own would make
more sense. But we also heard that the maintainers of at least one of
the other BSDs or Linux have a religious aversion to users mounting
anything. Certainly one would want to think through the interactions
of set-id and user mounts.
