The problem is not mounting filesystems and ignoring the permissions the ACLs specify. The problem is having something mount a filesystem containing ACLs and modifying the contents, thereby DESTROYING the ACLs already specified in the filesystem.

You don't mind something ignoring the ACLs, but you don't want it to delete them. ACL-insensitive-but-ACL-preserving ;)

Right. So why is read-only mounting not allowed?
