Cygwin could follow Linux and implement 'mount -o mand'
A "mand" mount option sounds like a really interesting idea, together with the special group permission settings as described in the Linux fcntl(2) man page. Maybe we can even relax that by making the "mand" option the default setting,
In the next couple of months I have probably no time to implement it. It's not overly tricky to implement it, as far as I can see, but, as usual, somebody has to do it.
