Getting an EPERM/EACCES in userspace really kinda blows. As a user you
don't have any idea why you got it. It could be SELinux, it could be
rwx bits on the file, it could be a missing capability, it could be an
ACL, it could be who knows what.
We'd like to start figuring out the who knows what and hopefully find a way to expose that to userspace.
But maybe those great minds on the lists can help me think of ways to
get Friendlier denials that I haven't thought of. Please. What are you
thoughts, concerns, issues?
