If you want to contribute patches then post then in-line as text without any additional change (eg. ensure the mailer doesn't split lines therby corrupting the patch). I can't properly comment on the patch, even if I wanted too, because it isn't in-line. Anyway, what about updating the man pages with your new option? Should text modes be considered, perhaps octal modes are sufficient, and should be all that's allowed, to keep the change as simple (generally a good idea) ...
