    If they’re incorporating open libraries, Hopefully support for real filesystems will be next

      Humm, I doubt it as NTFS has ACLs built in to FS directly, so far I don’t know if Linux FS has that feature, I know that ACLs exists in the Linux file world, but I don’t know if they are built in durectly in the FS.

          That is fair, I confused support with making windows run on them rather than being able to just read and write to them.

          That is my mistake.

        Pretty much all Linux FS support ACLs and have for an eternity.

        The thing is that nobody uses ACLs because the good ole user/group/world rwx scheme is much less of a hassle to work with in 99.9% of the cases and the remaining 0.01% can still be done.
