Comment (by idefix):

 The problem is that to let bfs_fuse better integrate with Linux (as a
 mount helper), some FUSE options had to be added. But most of them only
 work when you are root.

 I added a [attachment:0002-Allow-non-root-to-mount-BFS-partition-with-
 bfs_fuse.patch new patch] that will only add the FUSE options when the
 user is root. It should now behave the same as the old bfs_fuse.
