I would like to switch udisks to use something better and more reliable
than mtools (mtools has issues with encodings as well) - in fact, I've
had a mental TODO-item for a while to just rewrite it myself but if
there already is something suitable (dosfstools), I'm fine with using
that instead. I would suggest opening a bug against udisks on
bugs.fd.o for this udisks change.
