             Summary: Add support for PrincipalAccessControlList and 
ac-management by principal
                 Key: SLING-8602
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-8602
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Repoinit
            Reporter: angela


with JCR-4429 comes a new type of {{JackrabbitAccessControlList}} that allows 
to provide native support for access control management by principal as defined 
by {{org.apache.jackrabbit.api.security.JackrabbitAccessControlManager}}.  

now that there exists a new authorization model in Oak (OAK-8190) that 
implements these extensions, it would be desirable if the repo-init would cover 
access control management by principal.

note: while the original aim of OAK-8190 was to store permissions for system 
users (aka service users) separately, the implementation in 
_oak-authorization-principalbased_ is not limited to system users and doesn't 
mandate the policies to be stored with a user node. the location of the access 
controlled node is an implementation detail that can be changed. see Jackrabbit 
API and 
http://jackrabbit.apache.org/oak/docs/security/authorization/principalbased.html
 for additional details.
