------------------------------------------------
Without -d, there is no way to use ls to get the permission information for the
root /.
> Shell command ls should support option -d

> Shell command "ls" currently does not support option -d. Meanwhile the shell
> supports command "stat", but needs to supply the print format specifying
> which attributes to print on the screen. It's hard to use and in addition it
> does not support printing the file permissions. So I would like to propose
> that the shell supports "ls -d" and deprecates the command "stat".
