Follow-up Comment #2, bug #26641 (project findutils):
I posted to [email protected], asking whether it would make sense for
automount to do a mount triggered by a stat() of the mount point. They
replied that this is avoided, by design, to prevent a "mount storm" whenever a
stat()ing 'ls' (common, with the widespread use of colorized ls) of a
directory with many mount points is done. Apparently, large directories of
mount points are not uncommon (e.g., an indirect map that uses the "browse"
option).
