> In moving to 0.16, which will support permissions, a mode of no-permission
> checking has been proposed to allow smooth transition to using the new
> permissions feature.
> The idea is that at first 0.16 will be used for a period of time with
> permission checking off.
> Later after the admin has changed ownership and permissions of various files,
> the permission checking can be turned off.
> This Jira defines what the semantics are of the no-permission-checking mode.
