these flags are not mixed with another mount flags, it means that:

- (!) on systems with regular mtab file it is impossible to umount by "umount
/dev/loop0" if the loop device has been created by "mount -o loop", because
there is backing file in the mtab (instead of the device name).

libblkd and libmount

login-utils:
-----------
- (!) merge newgrp from shadow-utils
- consolidate newgrp(1)
* we have "su --group/--supp-group" to switch between groups, newgrp(1) in
util-linux and shadow-utils (and sg(1) alias in shadow-utils)
* the unique functionality provided by newgpr(1) is support for group
passwords [/etc/gshadow] -- do we really need this functionality?
* maybe we can mark group-passwords as deprecated, and replace sg(1) and
newgpr(1) with su(1) code. The another way is to ask fro group password in
su --group too.
* note that shadow-utils newgpr(1) provides support for syslog and audit log.
