Restriction enforcement

Dear all,

I noticed that --max-size, --min-size, --exclude, and --include are only sent by
the client as a "request" to the server, and that if the server for
some reason chooses to ignore those options and include those files in the file
list anyway, the client will happily run with it. Is this intentional? And if
so, is there another way for the client to enforce that those restrictions are
adhered to?

Cordially,
Koen
