They look OK to me but I'm still a bit concerned about changing the way
this behaves, but I also believe this is the way we want it to behave.

Give me a little bit more time to run a simple test to ensure we can at
least do what we could previously, and that's nothing more than
umounting duplicated mounts (which probably shouldn't be duplicated at
all) in the container.
