Research direction

Start by locating the fs.open and fs.create entry points in the filesystem abstraction layer and determine how permissions are currently handled. Clarify the intended permissions= behavior and the race-conditionless chowning requirements before implementation. Done means the requested behavior is defined, implemented, and covered by relevant tests.
