Well, I am not the one to decide if your words make sense or not. I can
only say, that your words made sense to me :-) Or to put it in other
words: I strongly support this request. I expect this behaviour from
umount and think that our umount behave a little bit strange. umount -a
should unmount everything that's mounted, not only what's in fstab.
