[sshfs] Problem with SSHFS and /etc/fstab

I have been trying to mount a filesystem using sshfs, which works from the
command line, but when I try to do the same in /etc/fstab, it tells me that
the mount point is invalid, or something along those lines.  Looking at the
way the line is formatted, the problem is arising from the first entry in
fstab, namely
sshfs#hostname...
I think when /etc/fstab is parsed, it is seeing the # as a comment and not
as the correct entry.  Why not change this symbol from # to something else
like ":" or // or something like that is not a comment symbol? The change is
simple from what I could see in sshfs.c somewhere towards the end of the
file.
