exFat permissions

Hi. Up-to-date Stable.

I have exfat-fuse and exfat-utils installed, and while exFat seems to 
work just fine, there is an issue with the permissions that I don't 
know how to track down.

I formatted the same thumb drive in Fat32 and exFat, and the 
automounter is giving them DIFFERENT permissions:

With Fat32:
$ dir /media/disk/
total 4
- -rwxr-xr-x 1 curt root 2 Sep  2 09:58 Testing

With exFat:
$ dir /media/disk/
total 32
- -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 54 Sep  2 10:03 Testing

All FAT devices, thumb drives, SD cards, etc, all mount with the 
presently logged in user as "user", which has worked this way for 
years. I know that FAT has no user/group permissions attributes in 
the file system itself, so the user/group is being set by fuse and 
automount.

Only exFat has the "user" as root, as well as the "group" as root.

My searching for exfat in /lib/udev and /etc/udev has been fruitless, 
any suggestions?
