--- Comment #8 from Edward Tomasz Napierala <trasz@FreeBSD.org> ---
We already have a mechanism for this kind of check: special maps.  Kind of how
special_hosts works, but looking up usernames instead of hosts.  I've done a
quick test, and it appears that "cd /net/nonexistent" does not result in that
directory being created.  So, special case could consist of a new map, say,
special_users, which would first verify the username using getent(1).

Another thing we could do is to remove the (newly created) mountpoint if mount
fails, before releasing the process which triggered the mount.
