Very well done: pretty simple and clear.
I haven't seen layer creation/erasing: is it supposed to be done by 
admin only ?

Another nitpick: does this proposal lend itself well to the RESTful 
Admin API ? What about writing down a draft for this portion of the API ?

Moreover, what about extending it to cover processing as well ?
I mean, if I have read-only access to two raster datasets and I want to 
generate a third one based on map algebra, I should be able to create a 
new raster dataset, right ? How can the ACL express that ?

Hmmm... this last requirement may complicate matters considerably 
though, just look at the XML Schema for Access Control List by OASIS:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/xacml/2.0/access_control-xacml-2.0-rbac-profile1-spec-os.pdf
