[OpenAFS] Backup-strategy

[Todd M. Lewis]

Users have implicit administer rights in any directory they own, 
regardless of whether they are listed explicitly on the directory's ACL. 
They may not be allowed to change ACLs; that doesn't mean they don't do 
it. :-)

Wasn't there some discussion earlier about changing that behavior (of 
OpenAFS that is, not of users)?
