as far as the authors know no GNU tool handles them. You can cat the getfacl 
output to a file and tell setfacl to get the args from a file. It's a slight 
kludge but...

that's the default acl you're talking about
setfacl -m d:u:username::rw /shares/stuff
(notice the d:***)
adds rw access to username to any file created in /shares/stuff
don't know if you can do the X (caps) to add cd'ing to dirs in subtree.
