Well, I did not check the code. But when the generator creates the unit in /run, it must be notified somehow to systemd, no? Isn't it inotify? Also, the generated unit must be parsed by systemd, that justifies "parse again", or did I miss something? >> One suggestion at IRC was to just keep systemd mount units.
