When using fstab and mounting a second partition as /Users/ do you guys get the icons still in finder? On the desktop and finder side window?

Yes

I hide it via a launch daemon and a script

I have SetFile packaged up and deploy.

/usr/bin/SetFile -a V /Users

Good security I think. We have a lot of computer sharing going on so it's not a bad thing.

chflags hidden /Users
might be the new proper way to hid it
chflags nohidden /Users to show it again

Not necessarily the proper way, just a different way!

But yes chflags means less messing about.
