Title:
  Use safe mount for USB devices

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  For years ubuntu has been plagued by horrible user experience when dealing with usb drives:
  - user forget to unmount device
  - fs is corrupted
  - user insert device back and is overwritten/lost

  Luckily solution is finally available: ubuntu should use systemd-mount for all usb devices so they are
  - mount only when it's really necessary
  - aggressively unmounted to prevent data loss
  - fscked before mounting

  This will lead to much nicer situation where new users will not blame
  ubuntu anymore for data loss.
