And, prior to this, what justifies integrating AC into the sitemap semantic? How do we determine if AC is something that warrants being "promoted" to the sitemap level? What general principles can we apply? At some level, AC looks like it belongs to the logic domain (vs. Content, Presentation). But URI matchers and selectors look that way too. What is it about Actions that has made them unsuccessful or undesirable within the sitemap? If the sitemap is like a mirror of the different employee roles in a web publishing enterprise, then I think that the Security Managers, the Gatekeepers, deserve their small island in the archepelago, alongside the programmers, the writers, visual artists, and, of course, the site architect. I see two propositions: 1. Access Control should be integrated into the sitemap. 2. The sitemap is sufficient; we can provide out-of-the-box AC with the existing framework, or address that in the upcoming componentized Cocoon App architecture.
