@bbende overall looks great ! I executed unit tests for coverage evaluation
(hence my notes above) and did some integration testing with a remote Ranger
server which also worked well.
In looking at the RangerBasePluginWithPolicies it appeared to me to be a
convenience class for extracting resources and storing a copy of the resource
value for lookup later. One thought I had was whether the RangerPolicyEngine
could be interrogated (via methods on the RangerBasePlugin) to check for
existing resources to avoid the copy?
