For me it still autpmounts MyDocs, but with incorrect parameters, leaving root the owner. Attempting to write to MyDocs as user fails.

Had to manually unmount and remount with uid= parameter.

Re: Disabling screen backlight *completely* without locking screen?

Setting brightness in settings to max or lowest first, and disabling power save feature, could perhaps stop it from changing brightness again when ambient light changes.
