mc: Could you add a "Skip all" if the source file can't be read?

When there's a permission denied in mc 4.5.55 or 4.6.0-pre1 the
following dialog is shown:


 lqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq Error qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqk
 x  Cannot read source file "/tmp/a"                          x
 x  Permission denied (13)                                    x
 x                                                            x
 x               [ Skip ]  [ Retry ]  [ Abort ]               x
 mqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqj


It would be nice to have an option "Skip all" to make it possible to
mirror as much as possible from a directory tree where you don't have
read permission on all files without getting asked at every single file.


TIA
