This is what at least FreeBSD has. Using mount on an nfs filesystem ends up calling mount_nfs. Here are all the ones that I seem to have on a FreeBSD box:
mount mount_ext2fs mount_lfs mount_nfs mount_procfs mount_union mount_cd9660 mount_fdesc mount_mfs mount_null mount_std mount_devfs mount_kernfs mount_msdos mount_portal mount_umap
Your idea is reasonable.
