Maybe another option would be to provide some optional arguments to the
import directive:
pkgsend import <dir> [filemode=<mode>] [exemode=<mode>] [owner=...]
[group=...] [other tags...]
The arguments would cause the generated actions to have the specified
values. The filemode and exemode arguments could be based on the the
user permissions that are already present.

That said, would import preserve the permissions of the target dir?
make install usually produces 644/755 perms (according to default

be IMO better.
What would be Your opinion?
I'd rather just have it incorporate the permissions that are already
present in the directory. That's in line with the way that ON and SFW
construct their proto areas. You'll have to run the resulting manifest
through a filter to change the owners and groups of each object, anyway, so
if you need to futz with the mode, too, that shouldn't be a big deal.
Doing anything else would either be guesswork, or likely turn into a mess
on the commandline to describe the necessary transformations. I expect
that the most likely use for such a tool would be to output a manifest to a
file, mess with it, and check the result in.
