Subject: Re: [RFC v7 13/41] richacl: Check if an acl is equivalent to a file
mode

We're assuming here that it's OK for us to silently rearrange an ACL as
long as the result is still equivalent (in the sense that the permission
algorithm would always produce the same result).
I guess that's OK by me, but it might violate user expectations in some
simple common cases, so may be worth mentioning in documentation
someplace if we don't already.
