Hi there!
I had the same problems. My wish is to support removable media mounted, owned
and unmounted by any user.
The owner option does not provide a solution, because automount runs everytime
as root.
That is the reason why uid and gid options fail, too.
Maybe it is a good idea to extend the comunication to the automount deamon by
uid and gid from current->uid and current->gid on kernel side. This information
can be used to provide suitable Variable Substitution. So this line for my zip
disk is possible:
zip -fstype=auto,user=${uid},uid=${uid},gid=${gid},umask=077
it would be nice to put such information into the environment or option line of
a program map, too.
I like to know your opinion.
Yours, Achim
