Something like (1). Basically you're using multiple options plus string
encoding to structure the configuration information. I'm proposing that we come
up with a descriptive structure.
For example:
[
{
principals: { users: ["abc"], groups: [] },
can_impersonate: {users: ["xyz"], groups: ["g1", "g2"]}
},
{
principals: { users: [], groups: ["g2"] },
can_impersonate: {users: ["user3", "user4"], groups: []}
}
]
One other note, system/session options shouldn't start with "drill".
