That's definitly not true! We regulary mount directories outside the 
docroot, eg. a subdir from EGroupware files_dir.

You can mount arbitrary folders, *IF* Apache / Webserver has access to 
it. Access can also be denied by PHP's open_basedir directiv, eg. from 
EGroupware Apache configuration or your php.ini.
