[ale] exporting a sub filesystem and mounting?

I'd rather not have my filesystem all linked up.  I'd ideally like:

filesystem  albatross:/data (100Gig)

mount /data/home/nomad		/home/nomad
mount /data/home/wife 		/home/wife
mount /data/home/backups	/mnt/backups
mount /data/home/mirrors	/mnt/mirrors

but done with automounter.
