i believe you may mean 'hal monitor'.

preset uuid or label and set hal up to recognize what you want.

never said it would, but it can make a mount executable.

now that you are asking about hal, have a look at hal handbook;
    http://www.linuxcnc.org/HAL_Documents.pdf

and what redhat has to say about hal. one page is;
    http://www.redhat.com/magazine/003jan05/features/hal/

problem is you are asking for mounts related to types of files,
*not* types of hardware. which may not be doable.

any way, you need to further your work in #4 of my first suggestions.
