Excuse me? What strawman? If you want it spelled out - here it comes:
a) the scheme you've described will work b) it's ugly c) try to write down the full description and see how it will look like d) I mean _full_ description, not one with all warts omitted
From your reaction it looks like the variant in your posting wasn't supposed to be such a beast. Fine. Could you please demonstrate a snippet of manpage describing the proposed semantics of "flags" in your variant of mount(2)? Sorry, probably that's how I should formulate the question from the very beginning. If you can make it complete and not ugly - you have my sincere apologies, but I don't see how it can be done.
