Aaron T. Myers commented on HDFS-6463:
--------------------------------------

Gotcha, all makes sense. Thanks a lot for the very lucid explanation, Chris.

One suggestion - should we perhaps use this JIRA to improve the comment for 
{{AclStorage#createFsPermissionForExtendedAcl}} to make it clear that there is 
no bug here? Empirically, it's not entirely obvious given that it took me by 
surprise. :)

> When setting ACLs for a file or directory, it's possible for the resulting 
> FsPermission object's group entry to be set incorrectly, in particular it
