Stu Hood updated CASSANDRA-1320:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: 0001-Remove-AccessLevel-from-the-client-API.patch
                0002-Convert-AccessLevel-to-Set-Permission.patch
                0003-Convert-to-Permission-usage-in-Thrift-Avro-servers.patch

Converts AccessLevel to EnumSet<Permission> (with semantics from 
CASSANDRA-1320), but does not add or remove any authorize() calls. 1320 will 
add the new resources, and probably add a few authorize calls.

> Level based permissions are very limiting, and are likely to become 
> restrictive. The original reasoning behind using levels seems to be that 
> Thrift didn't allow an easy way to specify bitset permissions, but a 
> Set<Enums> works equally well.
