Azure-docs: Assign ACL recursively

[falmada]

Is there any way to assign ACL permissions in recursive mode? Same as we had with ADLS Gen 1?
Set-AzureRmDataLakeStoreItemAclEntry ... -Recurse:$True

Azure Storage Explorer (both Windows client and web one in Preview) does not have any option to do recursive for existing files, and I can't seem to find a way to do this within a filesystem on Gen 2 either.

@falmada Thank you for the valuable feedback,we are investigating the issue.

Not at this time, but you could write a script to execute a change of permissions on the results of a recursive list operation.

This in my opinion is a really big oversight - no powershell, cli, or portal ui functionality... really?
How should organisations add new groups to existing datalakes? Craft 200 million rest calls to add ACLs? Please prioritize this. At least match the functionality of Gen1 before calling something Gen2... more like Gen 0.5
