Thanks for posting this. I'm currently trying to work out how to do
this. I took a look at your behavior and think it'd work for me.

About the point you mentioned with Tree-based models: I'd think that
if a User needed to be granted access to some row which had a parent
that the User had been denied then the layout of your tree is wrong.
If you think about a filesystem, if user cannot read/execute some
directory, there's no point in having a file somewhere under it which
gives read perms.

My situation is that I have several Groups, and I need to restrict
which branches of a Volume tree they can see. Basically, like
filesystem tree, in fact. So, I was faced with having to fetch all
available Volume.id and pass those to my find('threaded') call, like
you mention how Mark Story put it: "you have to know the answer to the
question before you even ask it". This works, but seems sub-optimal.

Anyway, I'll give this a go later. Thanks again.
