I am specifically interested in the bug fix for
--link-dest when rsync is invoked without the flags
preserve permissions/ownership.

Also, since you are accepting my input. I would also
like to request a minor feature :-). What will it take
to have rsync create remote subdirectory tree
recursively?

something like:

rsync some/local/files/*
remote:/some/non/exist/dir/path/

Looks like someone asked for this in FAQ-o-matic too.
