> In review https://reviews.apache.org/r/37032/ there was some debate about how to handle "fallback" of setting/getting Unix permissions on Windows. That is, on Windows there is not native support for "group" or "other" permissions, so when a user gets/sets group permissions, we can either (1) make that operation a no-op, or (2) "fall back" to getting/setting "user" permissions.
> Originally the review opted for a "strictness" flag, so that at compile time users could pass in a flag and change the "fallback" behavior to be "strict" instead, ignoring group and other permissions setting.
> Currently (Sept 10 2015) we have pulled this option out, and only allow "strict" permissions. This will probably break stuff later, but we can reevaluate later.
