Thanks for the concern :), but I think I know my potential use cases pretty well. I don't know why backups would fail, they shouldn't be wandering around changing permissions. And our backup system supports ZFS ACL's anyway. Indexing systems? It's not a windows box ;). I doubt it would be wise to configure this hypothetical option on a root pool, but as far as I'm concerned, on my user/group data filesystems, this would be *fixing* the underlying model (pure-ACL), not breaking it. > And I have a definite fear that it'll end up impacting me, that "not > using it" won't be as clear an option as you think it will. Technology changes; it's a bad field to be in for the change adverse :). -- Paul B.
