Since I think we've crossed into the theoretical here and completely
hijacked the OP, what use could this extra bit possibly have?  If the data
is gone then the file just as well might be gone.  I would have to think
this is probably close to the reason that there's only rwx in UNIX,
regardless of how many complex ACLs you have. 

I'm not discounting the possibility that the rwx+m permission structure has
a valid use-case, I'm just really struggling to find it.  Can anyone
elaborate a good use?
