ACL code is trivial, once stacked FS modules works correctly. The quota code ought to be moved to a stacking layer, as well. Unfortunately, the FS framework has problems right now, and it's not terribly clear if they will ever be solved without someone on the core team doing the actual work, since the changes required are so large that only a core team member could do them in the face of the fear that much change generates.
