----------------------------------------

For me just one question is left: Why the user has no READ permission for its 
own context by definition/default? What is the idea behind?
{quote}

Besides being easier to maintain, when designing a system where security is a 
factor, it's better to consistently apply the same permissions the same way, 
with as few exceptions as possible. Introducing exceptions to a permission 
management system (in this case, an implicit READ in one special case) is 
asking for trouble.

> We noticed some strange behavior when the user wants to change its password.
> When there is a "@” sign in the username and he not an administrator the 
> password change is not possible. (tomcat-server response with 404).
> Hs a admin an "@" in the username is no problem.
> Also, when the non-admin-user has no "@" in the username the password change 
> is working.
>  We started search but up to now we have no idea where the issue happens…
