The above can be done automagically by an updated mount program or a wrapper around mount (or set an at job, if at is installed and running). Getting it to automagically unmount after a certain period of _non-use_, however, would require support from the driver...which one might even put into user space (just to get it out of the kernel) if you can loop mount a named pipe...
