world writeable files

[Steve Fox <drfickle k-lug com>]

I noticed that Nautilus was generating world-writeable files (the 
Mandrake msec security tool reported it). Darin Adler on the Nautilus 
list thought this is handled by GConf and there I should mention it here.

Example:

Security Warning: Change in World Writeable Files found :

Any plans to fix this soon? Thanks.
