Well, the features the Solaris native versions of the coreutils have are
roughly as follows:

* chgrp: Windows SIDs (for CIFS/SMB shared volumes.
SAMBA could possibly take advantage of this feature)

More specifically, could you show actual command line uses for these features? That is, what flags or other syntax changes are you proposing adding, that would expose these capabilities.

Anything that already has an existing option letter in the Solaris implementation is a good argument for inclusion in coreutils under the same option letter, provided it doesn't conflict with existing usage in coreutils.
