Comment(by petri@…):

 Replying to [comment:6 markus.doits@…]:
 > 3. because of auto_xattr, i think the extended attributes of ntfs-3g
 should be disabled by "-o streams_interface=none" (which is obviously a
 drawback if you need them).

 Actually, [http://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-advanced/extended-
 attributes/ Tuxera's documentation] regarding EAs suggests that if you use
 auto_xattr, then you could expose streams through
 ''streams_interface=openxattr''. The docs seem to suggest that unless that
 is used, auto_xattr would not work as expected. I am wondering whether EAs
 are useable for most people though, I'm not used to working with them nor
 alternate streams. Any thoughts?
