I thought of mentioning something in that direction myself.
When I've successfully mounted a missing filesystem in a rescue
environment, I don't necessarily *want* to continue booting immediately;
I might want to check it and see if I can figure out what went wrong,
and/or make notes about what I did to get it working, or fix something
else that I know or suspect will have also gone wrong due to the same
cause and which I want to make sure is working before boot continues, or
any of a number of other things.
I would find having the system automatically continue boot just because
a filesystem got mounted to be quite surprising. At the bare minimum, I
would expect to need to terminate the rescue shell ('exit' or Ctrl-D)
before any such thing would occur. In fact, I would consider the need to
do so to be desirable.
