Right ResourceAccessGate was invented to support ResourceProvider services 
which do not do access control themselves. So it is an access control feature.

I would like to keep feature flags separate from access control. Its a 
different domain with mostly different administrators: I don't think we should 
require user/acl karma to enable/disable feature flags.
