The only negative I can see is for a non-admin who doesn't have permission to do the temporary bind mount. For those that need a non-privileged method, check out the mnt-excl perl script in the support directory -- it provides a method of generating excludes from /proc/mounts. Its comments also mention an even simpler, filter-option-based solution that will work for some setups (since filters support absolute paths). ..wayne..
