------- Additional Comments From steve_l@iseran.com  2002-03-03 07:14 -------
see the documentation on java.util.zip.ZipEntry : there is no notion of users 
or permissions in what is really a DOS based format.

Unless you can get some standardised comment/extra data to include perms, 
there is no benefit in supporting it as nothing which unzips a file will 
handle anything that is added to the file.

Marking as a WONTFIX.
