IMO this means do whatever it takes to make them "easy to use" :) I try to base my proposal on existing code, but I never disregard new functionalities that I can add if this means the UI and experience is gonna be improved. The only thing Rights version 3 is adding is the "Role" part, which is some kind of groups for rights. If the solution given is gonna be convincing enough to be use in the rights part (not yet .... but maybe some version of it) I'm sure there will be someone that is gonna want to implement it. Until then I will continue to prototype and find out how we can add all that functionality in one place. And yes... I need to focus more on the inheritance again.
