Yes. Since 2.2.5 (or.4) DACLs work with samba.(There is a small problem:
DACL rwx gives you for samba for created files and directories rwx, but 
on unix side using 'touch' gives rwx for directories and rw- for files).
There is also an idea to move DOS attributes :System,Hidden,Read-Only,
Archived to EAs in XFS. This should give you much cleaner permissions,
as they are now mapped into normal user/group/other permissions.
