worth mentioning here, in relation to the "sudo and mount" deps above,
that 'pmount' the perl wrapper that enables users to mount devices
without root is left unmaintained, last release tagget 0.9.99-alpha
https://alioth.debian.org/projects/pmount

I think is worthed reviving esp. because it allows users to loop-mount
iso files, something that is not possible via 'user' option in fstab
