Why is there no "world" group in Cygwin by default?
So war I've found EVERY Windows access token contains an group entry
for S-1-1-0 (World), which makes me wonder by Cygwin doesn't generate
a GID by default.

It's also called Everyone on some Windows versions/editions, and does not fit the POSIX security model, but is used in D/ACLs for Other 007.
