> The AuthorizationContext exposes {{getUserPrincipal}} to the plugin, but it 
> does not allow the plugin to interrogate the request for {{isUserInRole}}. If 
> we trust the request enough to get a principal from it, then we should trust 
> it enough to ask about roles, as those could have been defined and verified 
> by an authentication plugin.
> This model would be an alternative to the current model where 
> RuleBasedAuthorizationPlugin maintains its own user->role mapping.
