The only other thing i can think of is we could technically change the behavior of the authorization broker plugin because you could make an argument that any matching wildcard should implicitly be authorized if it matches a topic. In this case by publishing to a wildcard the intent is anything that matches gets it so should be authorized. However, the problem with changing that would be a change in the current authorization behavior which is not good for existing users not expecting it. So I think that we'd need to have a config option or an extension to prevent unintended consequences since it's been like this for a long time. So I would view any changes here more as an enhancement or improvement. If we made it configurable I think it would need to be something where the config would be described as "implicitly grant matching wildcard destinations" or something like that and probably a new feature and not a bug fix release. Subscribing to a wildcard destination would also need to be explored as well. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
