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.
