On the contrary, I interpret *access=private* as "*don't ask*". Do you want people knocking at your door asking to use your private toilet? - The customer case one can purchase access: anyone with money (meeting other requirements like shoes or a shirt) can gain access. The permissive case is the lazy one. It might be private or customer, but nobody's enforcing it and casual use is tolerated. In the private case it is understood an invited guest has access to the facilities: but not everyone will be invited. - The only thing new to toilets is the type of shop or establishment which semi-controls access to the loo by keeping the key out of reach. They'll then follow a policy as to who gets it: customers, anyone, or perhaps anyone they don't dislike. So perhaps the bit about "asking" has nothing to do with "*who can ask*". ---- But really my goal is to establish *pitlatrine*. Access for toilets is already widely mapped for better or worse. That's really what I've put up for vote.
