Frank Yang commented on CASSANDRA-3319:
---------------------------------------

i took a look at the system keyspace.  in cassandra 0.8.5, (that's the source i 
have, assuming that part hasn't changed too much?), it is created with 
replication factor 1.

It seems unfeasible, then, to store the authorization information there.  this 
info needs to be replicated to ALL the nodes in the cluster, right?

> SimpleAuthority checks CF access based on specific instructions for that CF 
> in the access.properties file.
> This is not usable.  eg, every time a developer adds a CF, the admin needs to 
> modify the access.properties file, on all the nodes.
> A different, friendlier implementation should grant CF access based on 
> keyspace permissions.
> Keyspace1.<rw> ==> modify keyspace1 AND any CF inside of it.
