I just noticed that AccessControlUtil.replaceAccessControlEntry searches for a

So if there was a grant acl and the replacement is a deny, then the grant is 
removed, even if the deny did not deny what was granted (I think I better give 
and example :) )


before

grant:ieb:jcr:write

update with

deny:ieb:jcr:nodeTypeManagement

after update

deny:ieb:jcr:nodeTypeManagement

That would be a bug -- the method's documented intent is not to interfere with any grants or denies on unmentioned privileges (after disaggregation). Looks like the integration test may be missing a case.

I think, the ACLTemplate in JCR2 will support

grant:ieb:jcr:write
deny:ieb:jcr:nodeTypeManagement




in a single ACL, perhaps the replace should look at both the principal and the 
allow/deny
WDYT?
