Yes, but I personally don't see this as a bug, because therefore you
have the option which version you want to use.

Well, duplicates won't happen for /dev/XYZ entries, even if they are
configured manually. But currently we don't recognise LABELs and
UUIDs, right. I'll take a look at it whether it can be done
reasonable to implement support for LABELs. I'm afraid of duplicate
labels (I really don't like UUIDs in /etc/fstab on workstations) but
I've to discuss the issue with the other grml-devs on next
devel-meeting. Let's see what's the result.

The reason for "mess in /mnt": grml makes sure that you have all the
directories available, which are given as target directory in
/etc/fstab. But as written above I'll think about the label-stuff
for fstab.
