I believe the correct policy for mountall is to ignore missing filesystems that are marked with options "owner", "user" or "noauto". Everything else should properly cause a hang (unless an admin explicitly says a filesystem isn't required via nobootwait). "noauto" should already be ignored and "user"/"owner" says it's definitely not required for booting. Anything else seems reasonable to block on.
