I agree that the model is good. However, I've spent more time with a
pdb deep into AccessControl than I'd care to think about. The code is
quite obscure and difficult to debug, even with "verbose security". I
think we need to clean the code up and document it properly. How many
people know how the various permission attributes work, for example?
