Hi Scott,

Really welcome your ideas.  Yes. Balana only have a sample implementation
for file system based policies.  As you know, WSO2 Identity Server uses
Balana as XACML engine and Identity Server has own implementation for
PolicyFinderModule. Sure... you could implement this for Balana... If
policies are loading from different sources (file system, databases and so
on...), it is easy to extend an in-memory finder module.  You can create a
ticket in here [1]
under Balana component and provide a patch for trunk.

Thanks,
Asela.
