Someone tried, time ago, and said it worked. Of course, on the same machine, because as you say, a different machine may have a different set of UID numbers. There is no mapping mechanism.
LOL! NFS comes to mind. But the mapping mechanism that uses won't work with locally mounted disks will it?
Oh, wait! Export that mounted FS using NFS then import it somewhere else with the mapping ...
Actually, you should be able to mount an NFS share from localhost (127.0.0.1). The NFS service runs as root. The problem might be the mapping. If the FS uses different users, you will need to map your user ID to two IDs for the NFS. But if all files on the disk are owned by the same user ID, this might actually work.
