The linux-hotplug package doesn't directly allow you to do automatic mounts of filesystems that are plugged in, but it could :)
Right now it's focusing on automatically loading the proper kernel driver for any device that has been plugged in. See the http://linux-hotplug.sf.net/ site for more docs on it.
