The "plain" type was never intended to do all the automatic mounts;
that was a workaround for the missing --rbind support. Now --rbind is
supported, you can just mount them under the chroot location (e.g. in
/etc/fstab) and --rbind will rebind them all under the session mount
location when you start a session.
Because the automatic mounting is being used by a few people, and it
is a convenient way to do things, I'm going to introduce a new chroot
type which will be "plain+mounts". This won't be the default, but
will provide the functionality you want.
I hope to add this before the next release (0.99.2). It's not a great
deal of work; the most difficult bit is finding a suitable name for
the chroot type! Any ideas are welcome!
Regards,
Roger
