[K12OSN] home directory listing for teachers

[Burke Almquist]

One other interesting thing, can't you also make a drop folder 5770?  
owned by teacher:class? That would allow students from a grade to  
drop files in it that they would no longer own but they could still  
read and write to if they had private groups. They have full  
permissions on the folder but can't delete any files (sticky bit  
owned by the teacher) and they can't only read and write the files of  
other students if the umask was set right. Someone correct me here if  
this is wrong.
