Hello Piotr,

first of all, I really appreciate your effort to fix such ACL related bugs, so
thanks for that ... but: I would have preferred if this would happen in some
kind of cooperation with us instead of going it alone. You know how difficult
it will be to fix things, if it turns out that your attempt contains some
fundamental flaws. A lot of these ACL bugs are opened since years, one week
sooner or later would have changed nothing.

Your fixes are still not sufficient for example for Silverlight whereas Erichs
original version worked fine. I haven't tracked down yet if its caused by
missing support for stored ACLs or missing inheritance for NtCreateFile (or
probably both). Since a half-implemented inheritance logic doesn't make much
sense, I am currently trying to rebase/rewrite and upstream our fixes for ACL
inheritance in NtCreateFile as a next step. If it still doesn't work afterwards
its a good example for a bug which needs stored ACLs.

Regards,
Sebastian
