perhaps pmount is enough for your purpose:
http://pmount.alioth.debian.org/

man pmount:
------------
pmount ("policy mount") is a wrapper around the standard mount program
which permits normal users to mount removable devices without a
matching /etc/fstab entry.

pmount also supports encrypted devices which use dm-crypt and have LUKS
metadata. If a LUKS-capable cryptsetup is installed, pmount will use it
to decrypt the device first and mount the mapped unencrypted device
instead. [...] 

*Files*

/etc/pmount.allow
List of devices (one device per line) which are additionally permitted
for pmounting. Globs, such as /dev/sda[123] are permitted. See see glob
(7) for a more complete syntax. 
[...]
