Ok,  so  there  is  no  way  to  "remember"  that  there was a default "X"
permission instead of a default "x" one.

I  am  sorry  for  the  stupid question, but shouldn't be useful to have a
defualt  permission  that  behaves  like  when  I  use  setfacl with a "X"
permission?  I  understand  that  there  is  no "X" permission on the file
system,  but there should be a default "X" permission that only applies to
new directories and not to new files, or something like that.
