I did work the cmdline angle before posting and was able to mount it alright up to the uid gid bit. Let me apologize to all to all posters on the thread for my sloppy post. I confused the name, which was never anything but .junk in all my experiments. Sorry throwing a giant load of poop into the game. I think Bzzzt may have hit the nail about there not being those options in ext4. Jimmy J's suggested line: '/dev/sdd1 /home/harry/misc ext4 auto,users,exec,relatime 0 0' works but you notice there are no uid gid options.
