Yes, that's something I fight with, as well.  We tried to
make the mount point crossing support better here.

"umount -f" is a power tool with no guard.  If you had local
apps using the filesystem, they would have seen I/O errors
as well.  The automounter is not making things worse here,
so calling it "sensitive" doesn't sound right to me.
