Yes, I think we should do that.  It's also useful for the case where you use
dired-do-chmod on a Tramp file.

AFAICT (now that I've looked at it more closely: sorry for replying too
quickly before) all he's suggesting is to add an interactive command `chmod'
and `set-current-file-modes'.  I'm not sure about set-current-file-modes,
but providing `chmod' (or making set-file-modes into a command) is
a good idea.
