noatime disk mount



Recently there was a Slashdot article linking to a discussion among
senior kernel developers (includng Linus) in which the conclusion was
that for much better desktop performance, disks should be mounted
-noatime (://linux.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/08/08/1810243)

In the discussion, it was pointed out that Ubuntu now does this when
installing. 

I have modified my /etc/fstab and there is a noticeable performance
improvement. 

Is it possible for Debian desktop to change /etc/fstab when desktop is
selected, or to make this an option asked of the user when the Desktop
task is selected?
