To me there is a distinction to make between ACL and Auth. Auth is using ACL (optional), but the ARO part of ACL can be anything, not always a user...(ie: action, context.. etc...).. You can use ACL without Auth, and ACL at record level (using the "model" authorization) can control the record "access" ...
