Well, Bob, I didn't perceive it as anti, just that you want to use
a Linux-specific fstab entry on an OS which isn't Linux.  Of course,
I was just a disinterested observer of the thread.

Here are three possible suggestions for your consideration.

1. Follow the specifications listed in the fstab(5) man page
   when provisioning /etc/fstab.

2. Develop a proposed set of diffs to fstab.h and mount(8) to accommodate your
   requirement.  You can then use it, and if you think it would be of
   value to the Project and its users, submit your diffs to the Project
   for consideration.

3. Use Linux, if neither of the two previous suggestions meet your
   needs.

Well, openbsd is not linux.

Have no idea what that word "defaults" in there means.
