Summary | Original: Implement immutable directory tree owned by some project ID | New: Add project flags to manage the project's directories and files |
I don't think the ability to set all of the files in a project immutable at one time is very useful by itself, except in very limited cases (e.g. a user is removed from the system, but their files are kept for some time afterward, maybe managed by the grace time?). It is more useful to have a property for the project ID that allows the (non-root) owner of the file to set the file immutable.
