   @janl:
   
   0) sounds good, 👍 
   
   1) agreed. In principle the check 
https://github.com/apache/couchdb/blob/884db891de6f7004f31a9a1a9d50b0162b1dca8e/src/chttpd/src/chttpd_auth_request.erl#L94-L96
 _seems_ like it should do the right things and obviate the need for the check 
in `chttp_db:do_db_Req`, so this seems like the right approach, but we'll also 
want to keep in mind @davisp's point in 
https://github.com/apache/couchdb/pull/1246#issuecomment-376569046.
   
   2) the blocker for cassim is the current security dichotomy where we have 
clustered level security in `chttpd`, and shard local security in 
`couch_db.erl`. We need to remove the shard local security model and then 
cassim will be rocking. There's been some discussion around this a few times, 
and the general consensus seems to be folks are on board with dropping the 
shard local security model. Now we just need to make it happen.
