5.   Give B.txt the same permissions as A.txt

I assume that there is some set of variables I can look at to find various
attributes of A.txt, so that $APerm = permissions(A.txt) or something, so
I can do chmod $APerm B.txt in step 5.
From the "setfacl" man page:

       Copying the ACL of one file to another
              getfacl file1 | setfacl --set-file=- file2
If your distribution includes getfacl/setfacl, these would be the best 
options (even on file systems that don't have ACLs).
