I agree. And not only that but also the fact that most of the time I would 
not want mount to trigger a background scan of everything because not all 
might be accessed later. Therefore it would be just wasting resources and 
ruining user experience. This argument is flawed in a way that is 
unsolvable in the same way normal preload to page cache is unsolvable 
because it is impossible to predict the usage pattern.
