Probably it's worth implementing a more generous solution for all FS's on VFS
level, i.e. something like:

man mount:

FILESYSTEM INDEPENDENT MOUNT OPTIONS
       Some of these options are only useful when they appear in the /etc/fstab
file.

       Some of these options could be enabled or disabled by default in the
system kernel. To check the current setting see  the  options  in
       /proc/mounts.

       The  following  options  apply to any filesystem that is being mounted
(but not every filesystem actually honors them - e.g., the sync
       option today has effect only for ext2, ext3, fat, vfat and ufs):

***
       asroot  Map all uids and gids to the root user. It's useful
       for mounting removable storage  media.  Note that all files
       and directories created in this mode will be owned by root.
