> This ticket is about enabling a sort of security admin role.
> Think of a hospital with patient data which is very sensitive information. IT
> should be able to grant/revoke/restrict access to the data without having
> access to the data itself. This is the clear separation of duties between
> admins and users of the database we're after.
> An example is along the lines:
> {noformat}
> As a superuser:
> CREATE KEYSPACE patientdata …;
> CREATE ROLE security_admin;
> GRANT security_admin TO admin_guy;
> GRANT AUTHORIZE FOR SELECT, MODIFY, EXECUTE ON patientdata TO security_admin;
> RESTRICT SELECT, MODIFY, EXECUTE ON KEYSPACE patientdata TO security_admin;
> As a security admin:
> GRANT SELECT ON patientdata TO new_nurse;
> GRANT SELECT, MODIFY ON patientdata TO doctor_house;
> {noformat}
> Original idea of [~snazy]
