loop support?

The place where I always seem to need this is for loop devices, particularly for mounting a ISO images. I could understand if noexec, nosuid, etc. were automatically disallowed, but all I want is to see the contents. Anyone have a good solution (that doesn't involve sudo)? With this patch, I'm assuming iso9660 rules would apply, or would/could there be special handling of the loop option?
