Did I miss something, but why not use a disk group that the xuser has
access to?  I don't really like tying the automounter to the exact
configuration of the X server, especially when this will break again
if the user is using a non-root Wayland session.

Ubuntu can set the user to the current user because as you say, the
user environment is doing the mounting.  At the moment, we don't have
that.
