I'm looking for a tool or procedure that will look at ACLs in a directory tree in AFS and suggest (possibly new) groups, memberships, and permissions to help straighten out the mess that has grown there over the years.

We have an aging cell, and as projects have come and gone, we've accumulated some rather ad hoc ACLs, some using groups, some not, some with users who are no longer around... I try to discourage putting individual users in ACLs in project group space, preferring instead use groups in ACLs and put users in groups. But many times individuals were added directly to one or more directory ACLs because it was easier at the time. Some of these have become all but unmanageable.

If anyone has suggestions for strategies or specific tools to facilitate cleaning up small to medium sized nightmare forests of ACLs, I'd love to hear about them.
