Description:

Trying to mount remote filesystems as non-root user with entries in /etc/fstab of type fuse.sshfs fails with the following error message:
fuse: unknown option(s): `-o user'

This issue is caused by the new helper, mount.sshfs (symlink to the sshfs binary), which does not ignore certain
fstab-specific options that are passed by mount to it.
This problem seems to have been resolved upstream (issue https://github.com/libfuse/sshfs/issues/96). Shouldn't the corresponding arch package also merge these changes?

There is also a thread about this issue on the Arch Linux Forum:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1738705

Additional info:
* package version(s)
* sshfs: 3.3.0-3

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create an entry in /etc/fstab corresponding to a remote filesystem, with type fuse.sshfs and options "user", "users", "_netdev", etc.
2. Attempt to mount that filesystem as non-root user via mount, e.g. mount /mnt/remotefs
This task depends upon
