First of all, I do not mean to offend anybody by continuing a discussion. I think comments like 'take it or leave it' have never helped innovation in any way. Also the comment 'you have the source...' is not a comment helping open source in any way. A user should also be able to participate in discussions to improve functionality.
The solution provided of changing the source directories permissions is not generic. It depends on a setup of the structure. But what happens if for example files from a USB stick, CD, a network drive are copied to an ACL enabled directory?
As mentioned, although posix does not support it, inheritance of permissions could be a very useful feature to implement.
