Cool! I take it this means that the only things that are stored in
fileattr.xml files are access permissions and edits. And that deleting all
these files will not cause any changes other than resetting all ACLs and
clearing all edits.

Does this also work with the old fileattr files?

Are there any issues with sandboxes getting out of sync? Not with ACLs, but
with edits. For example getting rid of the base versions of files in the
sandboxes.

Thanks,
Gerhard
