That is correct.

An implementation of provision with (I hope) correct setting of group
policy acls is in my posix-acl-provision-wip branch.

https://git.samba.org/abartlet/samba.git/?p=abartlet/samba.git/.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/posix-acl-provision-wip

Please test it out (requires a fresh provision run) and let me know if
you can now modify ACLs as non-administrator, using s3fs. 

I'll write a tool to fix existing installations shortly.
