So this 'improvement' by lab126 takes away the real added value of this method: simplicity.
If I am right, average users should find at that point more convenient to use the backdoorlock hack.
Of course your suggestion still makes sense for academic purposes, and just-in-case lab126 renders the bdl hack useless too.

We have things now that run as 'root' on 5.6.1 (everything ran as 'root' prior to 5.6.1) -
I am pretty sure that MrPi runs as 'root' now -
and of course the JB+MKK recovery thingy.
So scripting the commands required (which do need to be run as 'root') to create a mount point blocker by Windows users should be possible.

PS: The above has already been discussed during the recent 5.6.x related updates to the JB+MKK package.
So I can't take full credit for this suggestion.
PPS: The decision was: "Later, if really required".
