https://zfsonlinux.topicbox.com/groups/zfs-devel/T82e4ca6ba5be23dd/zfs-devel-acls-usability-was-re-native-zfs-nfs4-acl-support-issue-4966 Please check the system administrator view there. Otherwise it looks like the worlds of zfs-developers and system administrators had been isolated from each other. The zfs acl functionality has remained woefully inadequate for decades, on all platforms. NetBSD has a chance to do it right (and fully compatible, if the other aclmodes are made available). The "aclmode=decoupled" is presumably also the easiest mode to implement and debug first. The interaction between acls and "owner"/"group"-based rights evaluation is in the platform-specific ZFS code. This presents an opportunity to avoid importing the enforced conflation from Linux and FreeBSD. /od2uvb
