I'd be inclined to set preserve to false in the rcp body, and have separate
permission setting code per-file/directory. You could probably create a 2-D
array and use something along the lines of:
vars:
"perms" string => "johnny";
"perms" string => "0644";
"perms" string => "billy"
"perms" string => "0640"
"files" slist => getindices("perms");
files:
"$(files)" perms => mo("$(perls[$(files)])", "$(perls[$(files)])");
...Assuming "mo" is a perms body which takes mode and owner as parameters.
Adding suport for groups and maybe an option for enabling/disabling recursion
are excercises left for the reader. ;)
