[Bug 453605] Re: Make default mount umasks configurable

[Alkis Georgopoulos]

P.S. completely removing dmask from the mount options and letting /media/username "cover" the permission issues,
couples well with UDISKS_FILESYSTEM_SHARED,
so that people that want USB drives to be shared across users,
can just specify UDISKS_FILESYSTEM_SHARED="1" in udev for those drives.

Then /media/mountpoint will be world-readable for vfat/ntfs, as expected
(as opposed to /media/username/mountpoint which is protected with the default UDISKS_FILESYSTEM_SHARED="0"). 

** No longer affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)

Bug description:
  There should be an easy way to configure the default umask for
  VFAT/NTFS/similar file systems (perhaps through the existing gconf
  system, which has /system/storage/default_options/vfat/mount_options
  ?).
