That's never been my experience.  Firstly, normally only the root use
can mount something.  Secondly, when mounting a Linux file system over
NFS, the original ownership is maintained, but numerically:  User 500
remote is treated as user 500 local, so you better make sure that
usernames and user IDs match on both sides of the connection.
