---------------------------------------------
> The advantage with the file-system model is that it is really simple and
> would handle almost all cases that we might come across.
can somebody please explain why we are abandoning the file-system permission
model, and going towards ACLs. Is there a particular use-case that the fs
permission model does not address?
> Introduce the concept of Job Permissions

> It would be good to define the notion of job permissions analogous to file
> permissions. Then the JobTracker can restrict who can "read" (e.g. look at
> the job page) or "modify" (e.g. kill) jobs.
