It's a slippery slope, why not instigate that every program from now on has
to set +C on its user files? Or where do we stop, probably the browser should
also set +C on its user profile and cache files? How about the mail client for
the mail index? The torrent program on all temporary downloads?.. MySQL and
Postgres on all their databases?...
Insisting that every program now has to include a workaround for a
filesystem-specific gimmick does not seem to be a nice design decision
long-term.
