When I have a share setup in Openfiler, the fine level of user

with Openfiler its impossible to set someone's permissions as write
only.

The thing to do here would be to create a group with only that user as a member.

We're going to be adding user level ACL to the GUI in any case. The ext3 32 ACL object limit has been removed.
However, from a Windows box I can bring up the properties sheet of the
share and see all the permissions there, and I can then
change/add/delete at the granularity I'm used to.

These will be overwritten as soon as any changes are made to the share via the GUI.
But, Im concerned about two things, first of all, will I just mess
things up?  Can I do unexpected damage from managing the permission from
a Windows box?  The second concern (really the first one but dressed
differently) is that if you do attempt to make permission changes from a
Windows box it warns you that all inherited permissions will be
destroyed, looking at the permissions, there are no inherited
permissions to destroy, but the warning made me hang back and think
again.

Just bear in mind that any changes you make via Windows ACL management will be overwritten the next time you make changes via the GUI.
