Review Comment:
   Re: `List<AuthorizationDecision>  authorize(state, batchRequest)` - that 
LGTM :+1: 
   
   Re: `AuthorizationDecision  authorize(state, request)` - this method exists, 
but it is NOT currently called.
   
   Perhaps it might be best to migrate all authZ callers to use 
`authorize(state, request)` first, remove old `authorizeOrThrow` methods, then 
add batches, then revisit this PR. WDYT?
