It makes me wonder: At the moment, libfuse ships a mount.fuse(8) manpage that documents both the mount options that can be passed to the kernel, and the pseudo-mount options that can be used when using libfuse (but that are actually implemented in userspace). Would it make sense to remove everything kernel related from mount.fuse(8) and move it into linux-manpages?
