OK.

So, this means that you are/were also having problems with kernel-provided
filesystems like vfat? I thought that the problem only manifested when using
fuse filesystems.

I also don't like the flush option that is passed compulsorily to the
filesystems by udisks2, especially for USB thumb/flash/pen drives. And I
don't like the relatime option also on my systems.

I'm still undecided about the future of usbmount (see my previous message
about moving things to github). If I were to kill usbmount, then I guess
that we should have a good documentation of how to migrate.

And, perhaps, some work on the udisks2 side of things would be needed to
support our use case, but good luck convincing the developers of udisks2 to
change their mind to behave like we want to (I believe that they would
resist to changes, but one can try, at least).

Yes. With pmount, you wouldn't need to.
