It's for security reasons. If you have only trusted users witch use your system set SUID to mount (as root) with the command 'chmod +s /bin/mount' so that a user can run mount with root privileges.
Even if you do this users can only mount drives root allowed them to mount (by adding the appropriate entries to /etc/fstab). For CD-ROM and Floppy those entries should look similar to this: /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto rw,noauto,user,sync 0 0 /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom iso9660 ro,noauto,mode=0444,user 0 0 The important option here is `user'.
