during last month, there were already two emails in this mailing list discussing [forced permissions]: https://lists.mindrot.org/pipermail/openssh-unix-dev/2017- November/036468.html
This seems like a reasonable and useful feature. It's simple to implement, and, (apparently) there's already a patch to do it.
I can think of one reason why further thought is required. It could be argued that this needs to be determined per-user. That is, should there be some way to specify a group of users for whom permissions are not forced; or, in the alternative, a group of users for whom permissions must be forced.
I'm sorry to have erected what might seem to be a block to implementation of this very good idea. It is not my intention to block it; I encourage it!, in part because I have a use for it. I offer my help as a programmer of 40 years practice (although I perceive that that's not needed.)
