In all, with ACLs having one degree of higher complexity than unix permissions, there probably is no way to make this syntax 100% intuitively akin to chmod's.
Thus, the original proposal to use postfix +/- might communicate the

Personally, I'd prefer to not permit the use of the +/- syntax with negative ACLs, rather than open this whole can of worms. In particular, I'm not sure that the pre/post fix question is sufficient to communicate any distinction to the user - ultimately, it's just syntactic sugar.
