I've got one gripe about this. Mounting an ntfs partition leaves it in mode
700 by root. This is a read only driver, and unless there's some convention
I dont' know about, I believe mounts should be 444. This is due to

fs/ntfs/fs.c: line 251
vol->umask=0077;

Changing this to 0222 does the trick, but shouldn't this be part of the
2.1 distribution?
