In my opinion all this stat/dirperms thing is rarely useful, you could just

What do you think?

I personally think we can ignore this comment from Sashiko. The only ones
that should be running this code is those that are running it on a test
box/VM. That is, there should be nobody else on the box, and the system can
be blown away at any time and nobody should care.
