1. Ignoring packet sniffers is not possible. At this point in time,
   ignoring packet sniffers should be considered criminal negligence.

2. Read my example later in the thread. Even without packet sniffing,
   the differing options per tree can be exploited to obtain access to
   the entire filesystem containing the exported tree with the least
   restrictive options of any of the exported trees.
