+\fB\-o relaxed_permissions
+Usually we automatically add the libfuse option "-odefault_permissions"
+so that libfuse takes over permission checks. However, if running not
+as root (so as uid =! 0 and gid != 0), permissions of the underlying
+filesystem are already sufficient. In order to prevent from severe
+security issues, this option is not allowed if running as root.
+.TP
\fB\-o statfs_omit_ro
By default blocks of all branches are counted in statfs() calls
(e.g. by 'df'). On setting this option read-only branches will be omitted
