Maybe rsync could support extattrs on non-supporting fs's with a
.<fn>.xattr file stored
at the same place as the <fn>:
If a user used a switch to emulate 'xattrs', then on a fs that
didn't support real .xattrs one
could still ACL and other .xattr info. If a user ran rsync w/o that
switch such files
would be treated as 'normal files' -- allowing copying as normal files
between other
targets, but allowing ACL restoration on some final target by re using
the --emulate
switch, where it would detect the files on the source, and support on a
target, and
set ACL's appropriately?
Just a thought....? Doable or reasonable?
