Improve security API to allow testing arbitrary user's permissions
------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MAGNOLIA-4589
URL: http://jira.magnolia-cms.com/browse/MAGNOLIA-4589
Project: Magnolia
Issue Type: Improvement
Security Level: Public
Components: security
Affects Versions: 4.5.3
Reporter: Tomas Brimor
The security API should allow you to test an arbitrary user's permissons
against a specific Magnolia resource. As it is now only the logged in user as
found in the context is accessible for permission testing.
Example of pseudo usage:
{code}
workspace = "someworkspace"
path = "/path/to/a/node"
node = NodeUtil.getNode(workspace, path)
userName = "myuser"
userObj = Security.getUser(userName)
hasPermission = Security.isGranted(userObj, node, Permission.READ)
{code}
