Comment (by leckey.ryan@…):
I would propose `for_perm` and `for_perms` methods on both the user and
the default object manager.
So statements like the following could happen:
{{{#!python
user.for_perm('foo.bar') # Queryset of users that have that permission
user.for_perm('foo.bar', o) # Queryset of users that have that permission
for
Poll.objects.for_perm(user, 'foo.bar') # Queryset of all Polls where the
user has the permission for
# .. `for_perms` would be much the same except with an iterable for
permission names like `has_perms`
}}}
Of course this should be hooked through the permission backend and not
special-cased for Permission objects.
I could write a patch to add the for_perm and for_perms hooks as well as
implementation for the ModelBackend if the above sounds fine. Thought
about this for awhile now. Thoughts?
