Hi Martin! 

As Rodric mentioned, I've been working in Entitlements regarding namespace 
limits. I'm also interested in support for IAM integration. Do you have any use 
case(s) that you could share regarding what you're looking to support? 
Similarly, do you have any details on additional entitlement controls you're 
may be looking to expose (both short and long term) made available via the new 
IAM provider? I have a task to support for Adobe's IAM provider and would like 
to see how your plans potentially map onto that.

Cheers,
Andy

    Since IAM integration is of general interest and applicable for others who
    deploy and manage OpenWhisk, is the current interface sufficient? For
    example, this PR [1] from Andy Steed was steered toward Entitlement checks.
    Similarly, the current and future limits applied to a namespace may be
    equally fitting (where today they are tied to the subject records). So we
    should think about how to support both the short term and long term.

    This is great and long overdue - Are you envisioning that we can then also
    attach different tokens with resources in a more fine grained capacity than
    today (which is an entire namespace)?
