> [~rombert], while looking into moving all service user creation and 
> permission setup from content packages to repo init, i noticed that there is 
> one special case that doesn't seem to be covered by repo init but possible 
> with Jackrabbit content packages: creating/editing access control policies at 
> a user home. the path of those is an implementation detail and cannot be 
> 'guessed'.
> based on my previous work on the repo-init grammar, i could envision the 
> following main options to include this functionality.
> # explicitly extend the 'path-token' which is currently defined to be 
> {{(PATH_STRING> | t = <PATH_REPOSITORY>)}} to something like {{(PATH_STRING> 
> | t = <PATH_REPOSITORY> | <USER_ID>)}}.
> # similar to the first one: but don't touch the grammar just extend the 
> jcr-implementation: if 'path' is a relative path and is not _repository_, 
> treat it as userId and try to obtain a path from the corresponding user 
> object.
> # completely separate it from the 'pathList' and don't allow a combination of 
> absolute paths, repository-marker and userIds, explicitly include the notion 
> that the edited policy is not bound to a regular path but to a user home.... 
> instead of {{on /abspath, repository}} it then would e.g. say {{on user id1, 
> id2}}
> without having looked into it in great detail and given the fact that there 
> are already so many different ways to edit access control content with 
> repo-init, the first option would feel the most natural to me. 
> wdyt? i could try to come up with a patch/tests/docu, but i would love to 
> avoid investing a lot of time and then have to throw it away or redo it all 
> over again.
