I'm -1 on this one :(, that say, not sure what you mean by raw data, let's
see what others thing.
This new tab allows to manage the security of the layer, read or write, I
can see in the future to grow to allow other modules to contribute.
The data tab already seems a bit crowded to me.

Yes a tab will be added on workspaces allowing to:

   - configuring workspaces admin
   - and read write permission for the workspace

I see the four last points as interesting new functionalities, but they are
out of scope of this proposal.
Allowing to configure the roles associated and permissions of a layer
directly on the layer configuration page, seems to me that it is already a
significant and self contained functionality :)
