I thought about this a little further. As far as I understand, 
auto_props only work on the filename. So the _add_handler is the correct 
place. If we also want to filter/check the content of the file, then we 
must find a good place in Node.pm. I would also suggest to start with 
the _add_handler and its derivates like share without a source, restore, 
recover and so on.

The main problem for me is, that it takes me hours to write a simple 
line in PERL. Opposed to what is written in all its documentation, perl 
is not an easy language. It might be powerful, but not easy to read and 
to code.
Perhaps I will play a little further. I just need to have an idea, how 
to evaluate the auto-props-pattern from the hash against the filename.
