Yes, it's a good idea. I think we should document what auth object we will support and which rule will we export. For example, could the auth object be database, role and etc? and our policy rules are user->group->role->permission, which mapping relationships will be exported?

As a follow on I was wondering if it might help to add a functionality where we can export/ import rules for a specific auth object. So for example: export sentry rules for database db1. I think this might have multiple use cases like when users setup their rules for a db on a test environment and then migrate them to production. What do you guys think? Thanks!
