this might change on BSDI in the future.  It changed in 4.4-Lite.

right, but 'mount' knows how to deal with them.

for example, here's a fstab line for diskless NetBSD machine that i
export to:

boat-anchor:/usr/host/root / nfs rw,-r=2048,-w=2048 0 0

and you can do the same thing with any other options mount_nfs supports.
