Well, maybe I need to explain why 0777 _is_ logical (I
thought people here know unix). It's the default value for
the mkdir command, for perl, and for python because it makes
sense to only rely on the umask() setting.
So, why not have it too? Because PHP is none of the mentioned
above ? Come on.
I'm not discussing whether to add another INI switch (this is
totally out of scope and belongs to something else, but not
here).
Anyone with decent objections?
