I like this a lot better than trying to fix all the holes in the
current kobject code.
I have no idea who, if anybody, cares about the "mode" files. I
assume there's a way to create the "mode" files with attributes, too?
If so, we could replicate the existing structure with one patch, and
simplify it with a second patch, so it would be easier to revert the
directory change while keeping the fix.
