Great, this works fine!

I am using fstab entry because of /etc/rc.d/netfs script provided with
my distro does 'mount -a -t smbfs,fuse,nfs,etc.'. I set 
NetworkManager-Dispatcher to starat/stop this script when I am
connected/disconnected from the network. Thus it automatically mounts
and umounts network filesystems here. Both scripts are to be run as root
obviously. That's why I use the not recommended way of mounting.

Anyway, what you suggested is not helping at all. The mountpoint
directory's permission are overwritten no matter if I am mounting as
root or not, so anyone can see anything inside.
