Upload umask decorator

Hello,

I am writing brand new decorator that will allow users to set upload 
umask. It will change mode of all newly created files/dirs according the 
provided umask.

The decorator called UpmaskDecorator (prefix upmask+) will read 
configuration value upload_mask from authentication.conf. If specified 
and the decorator is used than all new files and dirs will be created
using this mask as the well known UNIX util umask.

Do you think its ok to have this configuration in this file? There is 
already verify_certificates which applies to HTTPS. Or do you suggest 
any other location for this variable?

There is other solution - without any variable at all. In this scenario 
the mask could be encoded in the prefix. Like upmask777+ or upmask766+ 
but I dont think this is good idea.

Thanks for comments.
