Yes, it requires pmount. No, I am not going to support udisks and friends due to the fact that they require the use of DBUS, and every time I attempt to do anything with DBUS I come away battered and bruised. ;-) Not only that, but there is a history of radical API changes that makes it hard to justify the effort required to get them working.
Then if a distro no longer supports HAL and does not provide pmount as a stock package then there will be no auto mounting functionality in TDE?

Correct. You can blame various upstream system developers for that. ;-)
As an aside, if someone else would like to add a plugin to tie into DBUS for automount and such, I would be willing to work with them on the TDE API side to make sure that the task can be accomplished. I just refuse to rely solely on projects which both use DBUS and are constantly being replaced with a newer completely incompatible version.
