Bertrand Delacretaz commented on SLING-7061:
--------------------------------------------

bq.  ...If we need to set different ACLs for different principals, then we 
would need multiple set, end blocks...

I'm not sure what you mean, can you provide an example? Or an alternate syntax 
that works better for your case.

bq. ...Do we guarantee that repoinit blocks are evaluated in order ?...

I think so but if we need that it must be demonstrated by automated tests.

> Access control setup of repository-level permissions (i.e. null path)

>             Project: Sling
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Repoinit
>    Affects Versions: Repoinit Parser 1.1.0
>            Reporter: angela
>            Assignee: Timothee Maret
>             Fix For: Repoinit Parser 1.1.2, Repoinit JCR 1.1.6
>
>
> If I am not mistaken it is currently not possible to create access control 
> setup for principals at the 'null' path, which according to JSR 283 is to be 
> used to setup repository level permissions such as 
> - node type definition management (i.e. registering new node types)
> - namespace management (i.e. registering new namespaces)
> - privilege management (i.e. registering new privileges)
> - workspace management (i.e. creating/removing workspaces)
> All of these operations are not bound to a path (like e.g. removing an item 
> or creating a new version for a given node) but instead take global effect on 
> the whole JCR repository... that's why permissions for these operations 
> cannot be granted at a given path.
> In the default authorization model shipped with Jackrabbit and Oak the -null- 
> path access control policy is stored with a dedicated _rep:repoPolicy_ node 
> located with the root node and 
> For service user definitions we need to be able to define entries for the 
> -null- path policy for the reasons explained above. Thanks for extending the 
> repo-init accordingly.
