To hear that stream are useless for filesystem operation is very new to me.

I have to repeat what I said earlier, these specific informations
(ACL, reparse points or other OS/FS specific informations) are very
hard to implement in a generic way as you are proposing. As the idea
in itself is good, I have serious doubts that a useful (working and
portable) solution can be implemented with what is described in your
initial post (barely posix only).
