-----------------------------

> in particular not to the session that caused them

i don't think that this is the case. the editing session most probably sees the 
modified ACL content but the effective acl such as obtained from the 
system-session associated with the ac-provider seems not to see the changes at 
that point. i could even live with that as long as we could be sure that there 
were no outdated entries stored in the cache that were properly updated 
afterwards. but if it turned out that the the entrycollector got informed about 
ac modifications before (-> clearing) and the system session was reading 
outdated information on the next permission-eval, that was troublesome.

> It appears that changes to access control entries are not always visible 
> right away; in particular not to the session that caused them.
> EntryCollectorTest has recently been extended to run the existing set of 
> tests under load as well, and occasionally we see tests failing because of 
> ACEs not yet being returned.
> Increasing the load (see attached patch for the test) seems to make it easier 
> to reproduce.
> The underlying reason might be that this involves multiple sessions to be in 
> sync.
> Note that the cache in CachingEntryCollector doesn't seem to be the cause; 
> disabling it by commenting out all write operations to the cache (making 
> everything a cache miss) doesn't change the outcome.
