Hi,
apparently the sync option really should *NOT* be used, especially not by
default:
http://readlist.com/lists/vger.kernel.org/linux-kernel/22/111748.html
Probably the best way is to get rid of the sync default in favour of an async
default,
and also make sure to warn against using sync on flash media in the man page
(and
README?)
(eikke: JFYI)

Description:
pmount - mount removable devices as normal user
Closes: 309591
Changes:
pmount (0.8-2) unstable; urgency=high
.
* Urgency high since this fixes an RC bug, the fix should reach Sarge.
* Added debian/patches/02-async_by_default.patch:
- Mount devices 'async' by default instead of 'sync'. This will avoid
physical damage of flash chips due to exaggerated updating of inode/FAT
structures and greatly speed up the write throughput. On the bad side
this makes it much less safe to remove devices without proper umounting.
- Replace option "--async" with option "--sync".
- Document change in the manpages.
- Closes: #309591
* debian/control: Correct package priority to optional, to match the katie
overrides.
