Yeah, sounds much better to me. However, I am wondering if we can
actually drop the nosave/save cases completely. Wouldn't we get the same
semantics by letting uid/gid specify the default id and make the ignore
case look like we're always reading -1 from disk, and never writing out
any ids? So as a desktop user, you mount with "uid=", "gid=", and
"force" passed as mount option and it works as expected.
True, that would work. It would require the addition of another mount
option though, so I wonder, is that really needed? What problem with
the current patch would this solve? Is there really a need to save real
ids to the disk with the current uid option and no force? Keep in mind
that udf is meant for removable media where the uids aren't going to
make any sense in another system.
Maybe I'm just being lazy though... I'll dig back into it and try to
submit a new patch with the force option by this weekend.
