Thanks for posting, alexsimps. Indeed, I have found the umask=022 option to be very useful on NTFS filesystems in the past. Unfortunately, it's with my '/' partition, which is ext4 that I'm noticing the problem. I haven't been able to change any permissions on my NTFS partition using Nautilus, either, but the real problem is with not being able to change user-owned files on my '/' partition (partitularly in /home/dane/blahblahblah). I don't really need to mess with NTFS permissions in Linux very often, so that's not such a big problem.
I see that this bug was first reported in 2008. Depending on how many people are affected, does anybody think it should be marked as "high" priority? (Not trying to be impatient, but I do think this is quite a problem for the systems/users affected.)
