Filtering causes a loss of original unix file permissions
---------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MASSEMBLY-523
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-523
             Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.2
            Reporter: Xavier D.
            Priority: Minor


Using the assembly plugin without filtering retains the original unix file 
permission.
However, as soon as <filtering>true<filtering> is used, then the original 
permissions are lost.

This is because the .archive-tmp directory is created and assembly files copied 
to it.  The copy process changes the original permissions.

Ideally, remembering the original permission state of each filtered 
file/directory, then restoring after the filter has concluded.  Whether Java 
can do this on Unix unless it shells out is another matter.
