Hi Scott,

Having millions of RIDs inside documents representing the allowed users
could be an overkill.

For this reason we allowed to use a mix of OUser and ORole instances, so
you could group users in multiple roles (a user can have multiple roles)
and assign the role to have the access.

In most of the use cases this solves the problem.

Best Regards,
