Yes, I'd imagine that we would want to be able to define three
different behaviors, by either having a set of options, or a sinple
option with a switch, say --group-access:
- "inherit" causes the permissions to be inherited from the source
node, and that's the default.
- "none" enforces the default 0700/0600.
- "group" enforces group read access.
