I did, it works:

~$ cat /etc/fstab
[...]
/dev/loop7      /tmp/m1 jfs     user    0       0

~$ mount /tmp/m1
~$ mount
[...]
/dev/loop7 on /tmp/m1 type jfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,user=mludvig)

See?

Obviously umask, uid, gid don't work as JFS is a unixish filesystem that knows about users and permissions.

Start with simple "user" in fstab and add more options once you see the basic works.
