   > Our security system is slowly grown and not coherently designed. We should 
start over. I have many ideas and opinions, but they are out of scope for this. 
I think everybody here agrees that we can do better. This *very likely* will 
*not* include per-document ACLs as per the often stated issues with that 
approach in our data model.

   >Big +1 on this. The auth stuff in our code base is hard to follow and 
difficult to hold in my brain. Taking a step back to redesign from the ground 
up would be super awesome.
