Related to this: (but NOT in dryrun mode!)

If verbose(>0) rsync reports the filename that is transfered. Is it
intentional that rsync doesn't report the filename when the metadata is
changed?

How about reporting something like:

dir/filename: permissions changed 
dir/filename: owner changed 
dir/filename: group changed

That way it can also be made more consistent between normal and dryrun
mode.

Please let me know so that I can take it into account into my patch.
