Preserve TARGET perms, user and group would be nice

[Mark Pitt]

Using --existing, I would like to transfer files created by root to home
dirs, where the files would be updated, but leave the user,group and perms
as they were.  ie root creates a new file on the sending system, rsyncs it
to the home dir of the user, leaving the perms untouched.

Seems there is no option for this - the users are not defined on the
sending system.   I cant do it backwards due to firewall regulations.
