Package: usbmount

Hi,
it would be very handy if usbmount supported mounting devices
by its UUID, if an appropriate fstab entry exists. This way
static mount points can be defined by something more meaningful
as the device node. I've attached a patch against the latest
source package.
Best Regards,
Patrick
