This is pretty much related to ACLs, and I think I should add support 
for different kinds of ACLs when I do it. Normal UNIX permissions, 
Posix ACLs and yes, dovecot-shared file ACLs. It needs some nice ACL 
API with different implementations and ways to layer them on top of 
each others so that operating system could force some checks and 
dovecot-shared file could make them more fine grained.

Anyway, it's all post v1.0 stuff to me.
