Would you mind to send an ITP message to cygwin-apps@cygwin.com as
described under http://cygwin.com/setup.html#submitting?

The package is more or less preapproved but I would like to discuss
a few details (on cygwin-apps, which is the appropriate list for
package maintainer discussions). 

E.g. adding and removing and listing are very talkative by default.
While the listing option allows to add a -q option, this doesn't work
for -a and -r.

It's your tool, after all, but IMHO it would be more suitable for
scripting to turn around the behaviour:  No output on -a and -r if
they work, error output otherwise, only listing the rights with -l.
The lot of output only with additional verbose option.
