I want this to apply to remote filesystems as well.  I thought
systemd.mount covers all activated .mount units, but it wouldn't cover
neither local-fs nor remote-fs targets.  So looking at
systemd.special(7) man-page (oh, why is this more complicated then it
must be), I think I must use both After=local-fs.target and
After=remote-fs.target as well.

Feel free to correct me as I admit I know nothing, to be polite, about
systemd, so I'm reading wrong man pages all the time.
