'noappledouble' can make the Finder unhappy under some circumstances. There's no way around it. File systems just don't work that way (that you can simply "deny" certain file operations and all software layers above the file system will still be magically happy).
When I implemented this option, I wrote the following note in the changelog: "I personally am not too excited about this option, but here it is in case somebody wants to experiment. I haven't tested this, especially in how it might affect the Finder and other applications. Use at your own peril." If you want the Finder to be more amenable to non-Apple file systems, you should file bugs/feature requests with Apple.
