Hi Gabriel, I guess that with your model you are losing some flexibility wrt GeoFence: Fact is, the LIMIT and ALLOW rules may have different matching scopes, Just one example: let's say, you have a layer L1 that needs to be limited to area A1 for everyone except for group G1 In GeoFence you'll create these rules with a high priority, such as for instance
- Rule 10: Layer L1, Grant: LIMIT, Area A1 - Rule >10: Group G1, Layer L1, Grant: ALLOW, Area whole world .. then you can have other rules totally limiting the access to layer L1 or whatever With your semantic change, you'll have to repeat Rule 10 for each group/user in your rulebase. This means that, for each group you create, you *need to remember* that layer L1 requires area limitation (and then create the related rule).
