As a result of this change it is now necessary for the FUSE |

`default_permissions` feature be used for proper entitlements |

management. mergerfs does allow it to be disabled but it should only |

be done so for debugging purposes. |

Yes. At least in so far as it's been enabled now the FUSE itself |

allows a filesystem to indicate it is allowed. |
