Does anyone know of an access control type they've wanted in an access
control list but not had?


It would be nice to be able to control the ability to annotate an object 
(eg. by adding additional data forks), and also on file systems like 
ext2 that support additional attributes like immutability or append only 
to be able to control access to those.
