-- rewrite the replay script to C to avoid dependence on perl
+       In the past the right record order could be figured out easily by just
+       checking out fstab (if one knew what to look for) but considering the
+       fastly increasing number of user space file systems and their usage, with
+       their path, library, etc dependencies, it's getting trickier and is a black
+       magic for most users because they simply expect drives to be mounted
+       independently of their order in fstab.
 
-- add an option to the cal command to control highlight date
-  (cal -v YYYY/MM/DD)
+       One typical, wrongly edited fstab example is:
 
-2.14:
-====
+         /dev/hda2 /             ext3      defaults  1 1
+         /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows  ntfs-3g   defaults  0 0
+         /dev/hda3 /usr          ext3      defaults  0 0
 
-- use rpmatch() for all Y/N  ?
+       The events:
 
-- rewrite ipcs to use /proc/sys/kernel rather than unreliable syscalls
-  (there are problems with 32bit userspace on 64bit kernel)
+         mount  ->  /sbin/mount.ntfs-3g  ->
+                ->  resolves to <path1>/ntfs-3g via a symlink ->
+                ->  ntfs-3g requires at least <path2>/libfuse*
+
+       There are many potential solutions. For example installing everything on
+       the root file system which may be needed for successful mount. But this
+       is not always feasible or practical since we could end up putting almost
+       everything on the root file system in the end.
+
+       Another idea is an improved mount strategy:
+
+         do {
+               try to mount all unmounted entries
+         } while (not all mounted && at least one new was successfully mounted)
