Subject: Filesystem specific mount options mixed with auto fs type

I came across an old bug report where the user had set the utf8 mount
option in /etc/fstab on a floppy, presumably to apply to a fat
filesystem, but when a disk formatted with ext2 was used, the mount
failed sine ext2 doesn't support this option.

That got me wondering, how are you supposed to specify mount options
with the auto fs type?  Certainly you don't just have to limit the
options to ones that are universal to all filesystems?  But how to
specify that these options are for fs A, and these for fs B?
