What I would really like to have is a function called
set-default-file-mode or set-umask whichever you like to call it.
Currently, I have to keep seperate emacs processes running with
different umasks so that I can edit my personal, system, and shared files
differently.  It would seem that this would be a desirable feature in
an editor that tends to hang around rather than getting restarted on
each file you edit.
