That's fine, though I think it lacks a way to set recursive permissions
separately for files and directories. I don't think there should be a
"Do _not ask me again" check box in the question dialog, it makes it too
easy for not so advanced users to mess it up. I think it's best if that
option only is in the Preferences dialog.
