I tested this on a relatively new OI system where the user *should* be
standard, and i get the same:

a) The USB device gets connected ('hotplug') and is accessible via
rmformat & friends
b) The vfat partition on the USB stick is not mounted automatically
c) only the root-role is allowed to mount the partition

So the automount feature needs some additional magic to work, it does
not work rightoutofthebox.

I updated my system on 2021:03:18 and I reported this problem to this
list. I can mount a USB thumb disk using mount -F pcfs but the automagic
thing is lost. However, when I insert a DVD into the DVD driver the automount
thing works.

The usual way this worked was via /etc/logindevperm :

# /etc/logindevperm - login-based device permissions

# If the user is logging in on a device specified in the "console" field
# of any entry in this file, the owner/group of the devices listed in the
# "devices" field will be set to that of the user.  Similarly, the mode
# will be set to the mode specified in the "mode" field.
#
# If the "console" is "/dev/vt/console_user" which is a symlink to the current
# active virtual console (/dev/console, or /dev/vt/#), then the first
# user to log into any virtual console will get ownership of all the
# devices until they log out.

# "devices" is a colon-separated list of device names.  A device name
# ending in "/*", such as "/dev/fbs/*", specifies all entries (except "."
# and "..") in a directory.  A '#' begins a comment and may appear
# anywhere in an entry.
# In addition, regular expressions may be used. Refer to logindevperm(4)
# man page.
# Note that any changes in this file should be made when logged in as
# root as devfs provides persistence on minor node attributes.
