The problem is not the technical solution. Problem is that changes of such important thing like /etc/fstab are decided without Fedora developers.
Eh, what? It's a change to how API filesystems (/proc, /sys, etc.) get mounted. When this was done in rc.sysinit, every change to how it mounted /proc wasn't discussed on the devel list. When we switched to having dracut be the primary way that API filesystems are mounted, that wasn't put up to a FESCo vote.
The practical difference is that nothing broke at that time, whereas systemd tends to break thinks that users use. (I won't buy dismissing it as "mere bugs" - adding NOEXEC could hardly have been a typo.)
Perhaps you missed the part where the bug was that the fs doesn't get remounted with the perms from fstab as by design. That's the bug.
So the design was to 1) change the setting in the C reimplementation 2) add a new facility that will revert the setting to its original value ?
Is it really surprising that I'd like more discussion of the systemd design in advance? Mirek
