Description

Sometimes, we need to identify a partition by it's mountpoint (eg, /tmp), and apply mount-options to it, regardless of the origin of this filesystem (eg, /dev/sda6 or /dev/hda3, etc).

The fstab PT should manage this, and have a new option "Reuse existing mountpoint origin", which causes lines to be matched by the mountpoint destination.
