[systemd-devel] Automatic unmount of inactive automounted dir? (laptop purposes)

Hi folks,

following this conversation:
http://www.mail-archive.com/systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org/msg06001.html
I would like to ask about the progress in this feature. I'm interested in
because I'm using my laptop with Archlinux on different networks and each
network has different mount points. I'm not powering off my laptop, just
suspending. Nowadays I have to manually unmount dirs and if I forgot to do
that before putting laptop to sleep, I have to do umount -lf in case when
I'm back in the office and want to remount asap.

Regarding to the mentioned (next) conversation: "We currently don't do
expiration, since this wasn't intended as a full

autofs implementation, but just a way to parallelize and delay load

things at boot." I'm considering using autofs even systemd.automount seems
to be better solution without any more layer on my system.

Thanks for the update and advice.
Lurid
