I don't see any issues in this case, for me it read as borderline closed approved automatic given that CIFS hasn't integrated yet. As an aside I personally prefer the Windows model that file owners can be a group rather than the POSIX model and it is good to see that we can now support this for CIFS. -- Darren J Moffat
