I think that is not quite correct. submount is a kernel module, hence it runs
in kernel space. A userspace solution for automounting would be
dbus+hal+ivman or gnome-volume-manager.
I tried supermount, submount, and dbus+hal+ivman and at the moment I like
submount best since it perfectly fits my needs. But as already said, all the
programs (automount, supermount, submount, ivman) have a slightly different
featureset, so one should really try them all and decide afterwards which one
to choose.

Very informative, thanks. I think I'll go with submount.
