There is an ongoing discussion about how best to restrict the visibility of
UI elements such as views, preferences, actions etc. based on the current
user's role. See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=201052

As pointed out by Scott Lewis on the bug (thanks!), there seems to be a
relationship between this it and the Equinox Security incubator work:
http://www.eclipse.org/equinox/incubator/security/

I wanted to let a wider audience know about these two things, in the hope
that people who know about one can comment on the other, or perhaps just
follow what's going on.
